Abstract
An analysis of Iraq's natural capital formation from 1988 to 2022 reveals a dynamic landscape shaped by social and political unrest, economic dependencies, as well as environmental fluctuations. Against the backdrop of conflicts, and Iraq's dependence on oil and land resources, the complexities of water resource management will be highlighted, along with the impacts of climate change. The observed impacts of climate change, such as rising temperatures and changing rainfall patterns, are an important aspect of the study. The results confirm the vulnerability of Iraq's natural capital to climate-related pressures and the need for adaptation strategies. The research provides a comprehensive account of Iraq's natural capital, and reveals the complexities inherent in its environmental, social, and economic fabric. The findings provide insights for policy makers to deal with the delicate balance between development aspirations and the necessity of preserving Iraq's natural assets
