Cleanliness is not merely a personal habit or daily routine; it is a civilized value that reflects a person’s awareness and respect for the place in which they live and study. Just as we strive to keep our classrooms clean and organized as a sign of discipline and seriousness, it is our duty to extend this same behavior to our external environment — in university courtyards, streets, gardens, and every corner of our city.
Keeping our environment clean cannot be achieved solely through institutional efforts or temporary cleaning campaigns, but rather through a collective sense of responsibility that begins with the individual and expands to the entire community. When a student disposes of waste properly or raises awareness among peers about reducing plastic use, they are in fact planting the seed of sustainability within their academic environment.
As the first university in Iraq in the field of sustainability, Al-Mustaqbal University believes that environmental awareness is one of the pillars of sustainable development, and that nurturing a generation that respects its environment is just as important as cultivating academic excellence. Hence, the Sustainability Ambassadors play a key role in promoting this awareness through environmental initiatives, tree-planting campaigns, and recycling programs aimed at creating a green and model university environment.
Let our slogan today be: “As we keep our classrooms clean, let us also keep our environment clean,” for a clean environment reflects a civilized human being and serves as a foundation for a healthy and sustainable future.Al-Mustaqbal University The First University in Iraq.
