Shafaqna English– First International Scientific Conference on Yazidis was held in Duhok governorate on Tuesday (29 April 2025).
Titled: “Religion, Culture, History, and Geography,” the two-day event brings together 105 researchers from 11 countries to highlight Yazidi identity, document their suffering, and correct misconceptions.
In a seminar, Yazidi Member of Parliament Vian Dakhil emphasized that thousands displaced from Sinjar since 2014 remain in difficult conditions in Kurdistan Region camps without lasting solutions.
Dakhil demanded that Baghdad implement the Sinjar Agreement with Erbil, or at a minimum, facilitate IDP returns, rebuild infrastructure, and ensure security in Sinjar, arguing official inaction perpetuates Yazidi marginalization.
