The Iraqi Student Community at UTM (UTM ISC) is a student group committed to creating a welcoming and supportive environment for Iraqi students and allies at the University of Toronto Mississauga. Our mission is to celebrate Iraqi cultural heritage, foster a sense of community, and support the academic and social well-being of our members. We aim to achieve this by organizing a variety of activities and events, including cultural workshops, social gatherings, and educational seminars. Additionally, the group will engage in outreach and advocacy efforts to raise awareness about the diverse religious and cultural landscape of Iraq, as well as the challenges faced by the Iraqi community, both in Canada and globally. UTM ISC seeks to promote understanding, tolerance, and appreciation of the country’s diverse traditions. Through these initiatives, UTM ISC strives to empower its members, promote Iraqi traditions, and enhance understanding and appreciation of Iraqi culture within the broader university community.
