🇦🇿 Chichek Aliyeva - Suleymanova, 29 years old.
Veterinarian
Chichek works as a private veterinarian for dogs and cats and pets in general. Additionally, she works as a food expert and does everything possible to ensure food safety for the population. Chichek has been working in these fields for over eight years.
Although Chichek entered the Azerbaijan State Agrarian University very reluctantly and with the intention of not re-taking the exam for her desired faculty, as well as the efforts of the teachers and the exchange programs of university students with the aim of improving their education in Turkey, she finally fell in love with this profession, and she still loves her job today.
“Actually, I have many dreams, and my biggest one is to open a training centre to develop the veterinary field. At the same time, it is one of my biggest dreams to open a fully-fledged pet clinic." Chichek has already started to take small steps on this path.
Chichek is currently continuing her studies as a doctoral student. She completed her bachelor's and master's studies in veterinary medicine.
The difficulties that Chichek suffered, in the beginning stemmed from the way in which female veterinarians were viewed in the society in Azerbaijan. Despite these difficulties, her love for this field strengthened her to withstand these challenges.
Chichek represented Azerbaijan at events in the USA, Sweden, Netherlands, France, Italy, Kazakhstan, Turkey, Georgia, China and many other countries. At the same time, she participated in the projects of international organisations multiple times. She regularly made speeches in the mass media on the protection of animal welfare, protection of animal health and safe food supply.
