Mrs.
Kader met today with Dr. Corrado Girmenia, hematologist at the
Hematology Institute of the Policlinico Umberto I in Rome, and Prof.
Ignazio Majolino, coordinator of the Italian project of
"capacity building" stem cell transplant activity at the
Hiwa Cancer Hospital in Suleimanya.
This project, which has been going on for about a year, has achieved
great results and is receiving great appreciation from the Italian
and international scientific communities, and is expected to be
extended also to pediatric oncoematology.
The High Representative expressed a sincere appreciation and deeply
thanked all those involved in this project, also hoping that such
initiatives could find more space in the Kurdistan Region,
especially at this phase where the health sector is heavily
weakened.
