In this regard, the intervention of Mrs. Kader focused not only on presentation of the Region of Kurdistan, its opportunities for investment and growth, but also on the fundamental role of women in Kurdish society, at the political, business and social level, but increasingly, in the light of current events, at the military level, playing a very active role in the body of the peshmerga.
