Abstract:
تعد المياه اهم الموارد الطبيعية في الدول ذات المناخات الصحراوية وشبه الصحراوية كالعراق، وندرتها وشحتها وتلوثها يعد العائق الرئيس في طريق التنمية المستدامة لانها تتحكم بتوزيع السكان ونشاطاتهم الاقتصادية بخاصة الزراعة. وهي بذلك اهم مرتكزات الامن الغذائي وال | Water is the most important natural resources in countries that have desert and semi - desert climates like Iraq. Its rarity and scarcity is the main obstacle of sustainable development because it controls the distribution of population and its economic activities, especially the agriculture.Thus, water is the most important foundation of food and national security, but water resources suffer from several problems including climate variability that results from changes in rainfall and snow. This phenomenon has a direct impact on the discharge of rivers` water.Besides, water resources in many countries are international (participation of many countries in one river). Iraq is one of these countries affected by these problems, as the Iraqi climate is characterized by being dry and semi - dry. In addition, one of the other problems that Iraq faces is the international pressure imposed by the upstream state (Turkey) and the countries in which the rivers go through before they inter Iraq (Syria and Iran). These complex and interrelated problems need exceptional efforts to be solved and reduced of it's serious effects. Therefore, the researcher suggests elements of national strategy for the sustainability of water resources based on the International experiences. These elements are suggested as a solution for the problems of water resources and its sustainability in Iraq.
