K-19 Initiative in Kurdistan

K-19 Initiative in Kurdistan

  • Task Force Charge
  • Task Force Meetings

As proposed to H.E Nechirvan Barzani, President of The Kurdistan Region, by Dr. Randall Rhodes, President of the American University of Kurdistan, a national conversation on K-19 Education composed exclusively of national stakeholders involved in policymaking and the administration of elementary, secondary, and higher education was conducted at AUK on September 19th, 2021 as the kick-off event of a 3-year educational reform initiative for the Kurdistan Region.

The aim is to identify opportunities to groom the current system into an exemplary model for Iraq and the Middle East with the focus on workforce preparedness, not just aiming to accommodate Kurdistan’s economic needs of today, but into the future with a more comprehensive approach to education from elementary through to bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral levels (K-19).

On September 20th, AUK hosted the K-19 Task Force’s first meeting. The Task Force, exclusively involving national stakeholders dedicated to policymaking and the administration of elementary, secondary, and higher education to emphasize a holistic approach to education from the elementary level to master’s and doctoral education, discussed its charge and begin the process of identifying action items for future development.
