Ferzende Munzir, an official from the Democratic Society Academies told ANF News that he hoped the construction of academies across Northern Syria could help construct and nurture a “democratic and moral society” based on peace and togetherness.
In Kobanî [Kobanê / Ayn al-Arab], the Democratic Autonomous Administration (DAA) also set up the first university in the Euphrates, a region that was formerly neglected by the Syrian Government. Prior to the Syrian civil war, Tabqa’s inhabitants moved to cities like Aleppo, Raqqa and Damascus to attend universities.
