Kurdish woman enters male-dominated tech field with support of Rwanga Foundation
Also in Kurdistan Sulaimani court denies political 'interference' in top opposition leader's arrest New Generation leader arrested in Sulaimani 37 Kurdish migrants to be repatriated from Tunisia to the Kurdistan Region Erbil authorities pledge justice for slain victims in gas station shooting A+ A- ERBIL, Kurdistan Region - A young woman from Erbil is challenging gender norms by pursuing a career in electrical repair, a field traditionally dominated by men. After graduating from 12th grade, Dahat Jangi chose a non-traditional path by enrolling in a 45-day mobile phone repair course instead of attending college. 'In the beginning, it was really difficult because I had no experience,' Jangi told Rudaw. 'But with support from the trainers and the Rwanga team, I improved. In the future, I hope to open my own phone repair shop and become the first woman in Kurdistan to do so.' Jangi was one of 40 participants in a vocational training program run by the Rwanga Foundation - an Erbil-based non-profit organization founded in 2013 with a mission to create 'a world where quality education is accessible for all.' The program offered training in two key professions: tailoring and mobile phone repair. Rezhin Mohsen, another participant, chose to study tailoring - a skill she views as essential for personal independence. 'When I learned about the tailoring course, I decided to take it so I could be independent,' she explained. The vocational initiative is a collaboration between the Rwanga Foundation, the Institute for University Cooperation Onlus (ICU), and the Catholic University in Erbil. Govar Haris, Rwanga's director of public relations, explained that the current training is just the first phase. 'The second stage involves three days of training on workplace adaptation and collaboration with business owners,' he said. In the final stage, participants will gain hands-on experience through a three-month internship with local companies. Afterward, 'they will attend additional workshops to apply their skills hands-on within the companies.' Launched in 2024, the two-year project aims to empower youth through practical skill-building and increase their employment opportunities in the Kurdistan Region.

In a viral TikTok video, a cat owner shared their feline's reaction to getting a new sibling to play with, and internet users can't cope with the hilarious footage. The clip, shared on Saturday under the username @jangimiau, shows the black cat, Jangi, vocally expressing her disappointment after her owners bring home a British short-haired kitten named Bangi for her to play with. "That time my cat completely crashed out when we adopted a kitten for her," reads layover text in the clip. "You just got to get used to it," the poster can be heard telling her. "You don't have to be angry. I know it's your house, but you're going to share. It's going to be fine. You'll get used to it; you'll like it. You need a social life. It's no threat!" Screenshots of the viral clip show Jangi reacting to her owner's latest gift indoors.

"We adopted the cat for Jangi so she could have a friend, but in the beginning, she was very upset with the new addition to the family," Yujin added. "She never met another cat before. But, between then and today, Jangi learned to love Bangi, and they became inseparable and sleep and play together all the time." While some cats would rather be only pets, others thrive in the company of another feline. If your cat needs a companion, they will show signs, according to Pet MD experts. These signs include excessive clinginess, changes in their eating and sleeping habits, unusually destructive behavior, litter-box issues, and a shift in overall energy. The video quickly went viral on social media and has so far received over 2.5 million views and more than 556,000 likes on the platform. One user, Scribble, commented: "Imagine if your parents handed you a baby one day when you got home from school, said you're now a momma, then called you a weirdo for your reaction. She's such a pretty kitty with adorable expressions." Lauren Edwards posted: "My black cat was the same when I got her sister's she 2 years later she only just about tolerates them but if they get too close she batters them." NikkiMack added: "The moment when her face turned to obviously angry, I lost it." Do you have funny and adorable videos or pictures of your pet you want to share?
