Internal composition of the organization
The organization consists of a group of women, numbering (20) women from Nineveh Governorate, from all components and religious sects, arts, specializations and different ages, and they are united by common and diverse ideas. The first meeting of the team was held on November 2019 on the sidelines of a training program dedicated to training the team on developing leadership skills. In 2022, after working on more than one project in Nineveh, the team was transformed into the Nineveh Women's Organization.
