The Kurdistan Web (KurWeb) is a platform providing independent information on Kurds and their human heritage. At present, KurWeb provides its information in English for worldwide use.

The material and content provided by KurWeb are varied and designed to answer to the needs of most callers. Information on certain specific topics are also provided at the Encyclopaedia of Kurdistan online KURDISTANICA in French and German; language and literature at The Kurdish Virtual Academy of Language KAL; and an extensive site dedicated entirely to the Southern Kurdish dialect and its heritage at www.kirmashan.com.

The Internet has opened the unprecedented opportunity for the Kurds in various corners of the earth to discuss among themselves and provide to others information on their culture, politics and human heritage. It has also laid for open discussion these hitherto forbidden topics to millions of Kurds living in such restrictive societies as Turkey. It has likewise reinvigorated the voice of smaller Kurdish communities as the Guraní, Kalhurí, Pehlí, Hewramí, Kirmashaní and their rich, millennial literature.

To reach an ever-wider audience, KurWeb needs your support in informing the public of its existence and its educational goals. The KurWeb strives for a better educated Kurdish community and a better informed international community. To help with the process, it is providing comprehensive, nonpartisan and accurate information presenting different views and updated regularly.

In inculcating such knowledge, we at KurWeb believe our service will facilitate Kurdish attainment of equal rights and liberties with other great nations of the world. The Kurds' legitimate and peaceful aspirations are not any different from the same basic rights enjoyed by the non-Kurdish callers of KurWeb pages, that include life, liberty and equality.

It is also hoped that the ease with which discussion and exchange of views can take place on the Internet will help in fostering a unified Kurdish plan for the future of the nation.
