Hundreds of people join the Platform and a number of branches
are opened in several cities.
Although after Dabran held its second conference in
Sulaimaniyah on Sept. 22-24 with the participation of enlightened and feminist researchers
and specialists which was a very good success, some groups reacted with hostile
criticism and aggressive lies against the Conference.
However, hundreds of
intellectuals are joining the Dabran Platform and this has angered the
Islamists and Salafis. Recently, after the second conference several branches
were opened in several cities under the supervision and management of experienced
enlightened intellectuals.
Two branches open in Erbil, one on Tuesday 04/10/2016 and
the other on Wednesday 05/10/2016. The former is (Khanzad- Erbil Branch) which
is supervised and managed by Dr. Hersh Aziz Brahim and some other
intellectuals. The latter is (Qalla Branch) which is supervised and managed by
Saman Ali Mustafa and some other intellectuals and academics.
Moreover, On 06/10/2016 (Pasha Gawra Branch) was opened in
Rwanduz and is supervised and managed by Hawar Majid Taha and some other
intellectuals. The forth branch Soran Branch was opened in Soran on 08/10/2016
and is supervised and managed by Shabaz Aziz Brahim and has several members.
In addition, three Branches were opened in Koya, the first

Every day people are joining Dabran as supporters and volunteers
in order to help the Platform to achieve its objectives. Dabran has opened several
branches in Kurdistan and abroad, they all will strive for social awareness so as
to challenge the mid-century thoughts among individuals, family, and community.
