   The idea of ​​international protection of natural heritage extends to the ancient civilizations and the development of these civilizations. Throughout the ages, the idea of ​​protection has gradually been developed through the adoption of the legal and international rules necessary to provide such protection.

     The issue of the protection of natural heritage has been and continues to occupy the international community, which seeks to find appropriate legal bases with the importance of this heritage.

     In this study, we discussed the issue of the international protection of natural heritage. The problem is the adequacy of the protection provided by the international charters of natural heritage and the effectiveness of the means used to provide such protection. In order to explain these questions we followed the historical and analytical approaches.

      The first chapter dealt with the definition of natural heritage and the second part of the same chapter examined the legal development of the protection of natural heritage. The second chapter deals with the legal basis for the protection of natural heritage, which was dealt with in the first chapter. The second topic deals with the provisions of the protection of natural heritage.

      It concluded the study and concluded with a set of findings that demonstrated the inadequacy of legal norms in providing the necessary protection for natural heritage in general and the existing heritage in Iraq in particular,
