We begin our 2025 Annual Report by extending our sincere gratitude to Minister Dr.Saman Barzanji, for his guidance and support throughout the year. We also extend our heartfelt thanks to the Director General of Heevie
Organization, Dr. Bewar Nawdary, and to the General Directorate of Health in Duhok, with special appreciation to its Director General, Dr. Afrasiab Musa.
Their continuous cooperation and unwavering support have been instrumental in the successful implementation of our projects. This support was particularly vital during a challenging period marked by the cessation of assistance
from many international organizations. Without their commitment and collaboration, the continuation and successful achievement of these initiatives would not have been possible.
International Cooperation and Italian Partnerships
We also express our deep appreciation to the Italian organization SIA and its President, Dr. Iole Pinto, whose support on the Italian side was of great significance. Through her dedicated efforts, specialized doctors and medical
teams were mobilized to support our programs, and valuable cooperation was established with Italian organizations and hospitals. This collaboration included the signing of formal agreements, further strengthening international
medical cooperation.
Special appreciation is extended to all members of the Italian medical teams and the following partner institutions:
▪ Bambini Cardiopatici nel Mondo Association
▪ Cuore Fratello – ETS
▪ IRCCS Istituto Giannina Gaslini
▪ IRCCS Burlo Garofolo, Trieste
▪ IRCCS Policlinico San Donato
Acknowledgments
We extend our sincere thanks to Dr. Alaa Salem, Director of Azadi Heart Center, and to the local medical staff for their dedication and professionalism. We are also grateful to the Italian Consulate, the Chinese Consulate, and
the entire Heevie staff for their continued commitment and invaluable contributions.
