Paragraph 1, page 124

Ethical Investment. "Iraq's First Social Mission". Social Work Institutions, Volunteers and the Environment. Social institutions operate in sectors such as education, health, and human resources, as  well as local community-based organizations. Most of them participate in skills development or support groups that promote learning and literacy. These groups are often targeted at vulnerable and disadvantaged groups such as children, youth, women, and the elderly. Social institutions in Iraq are enhancing the opportunities for innovation, as they believe that innovation increases the effectiveness of  their institutions, allowing them to serve a wider range of beneficiaries and provide better-quality services. By providing better services to both, innovation has allowed them to achieve better development roles than other organizations and work with less cost. Most social institutions expect to attract more beneficiaries, launch new quality services, and add new ones.
