Shengal- Shengal, known for its high and majestic mountains, is the holy place for Yazidis. Not only the people of Shengal but also their natures were massacred in the genocidal attacks on Shengal. Yazidi women, who have been organizing themselves for eight years to build a free life and a democratic ecological society, have learned how to fight all difficulties. Yazidi women have gotten to know themselves again by participating in education programs and felt the warmth of freedom in their hearts. They have been building a communal life in Shengal with the warmth they feel in their hearts.

Prays and good wishes

Members of the Yazidi Free Women's Movement (TAJÊ) have started planting trees in Shengal to mark the birthday of Kurdish leader Abdullah Öcalan (April 4) and to beautify and rebuild Shengal. They have distributed trees to be planted in many parts of Shengal.

Women living in the villages of Shengal’s Sinun town have planted many fruit trees such as fig, pomegranate, and olive trees in their villages. They prayed and expressed their good wishes during the distribution of tree saplings.

Meanwhile, the members of the TAJÊ and the women of Shengal planted trees in the Mişterik Park located in the Xanesor region of Shengal. They planted more than 300 trees. The women said that 2022 is the year when PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan will regain his physical freedom.
