Abstract

Environmental democracy has come in response to the escalation of demands to grant citizens in their countries greater roles in contributing to environmental policy-making after reaching the conviction that protecting the environment cannot be achieved in isolation from individuals who represent the group that benefits the most in the event of a clean environment, and they will also be harmed if environmental deterioration continues.

According to global environmental indicators, environmental democracy focuses on ideas that enhance citizens’ participation in decision-making related to everything related to the environment.

 As far as, the matter is concerned in Iraq, environmental democracy can be relied upon to develop appropriate policies that help address climate challenges based on the participation of citizens in Environmental decision-making and follow up on the enforcement of environmental laws.
