Resumo

This research, entitled The Legal Regulation of Natural Reserves in Iraq, aims to clarify the legal framework governing the establishment, management, and protection of natural reserves, and to analyze the adequacy of Iraqi national legislation in achieving the objectives of biodiversity conservation and environmental security. The study concludes that the legal regulation of natural reserves in Iraq still requires legislative and institutional development to keep pace with international environmental developments. It emphasizes the necessity of issuing a special law on natural reserves that defines their types, management systems, funding mechanisms, and penalties for violations, thereby contributing to sustainable development and ensuring the protection of natural resources for future generations.
