The Role of Government Institutions in Protecting Human Rights in Iraq after 2003

Abstract

Human rights are among the main issues that emerged greatly
after 2003 and the American occupation of Iraq and with the great
and new challenges that Iraq witnessed during that critical period,
especially on the security level, human rights in Iraq have declined
dramatically and have become the Iraqi citizen aspires to obtain his
most basic rights, such as living a secure and dignified life. And
bypassing Iraq many of these challenges, whether on the security or
political level, have become a duty for the state and Its institutions
give great importance to human rights issues, especially with the
presence of a collective awareness among them people need to get
their full rights and their freedoms after a large number of protests
that it was witnessed by the Iraqi arena as an expression of dissatisfaction with the work of the state and its institutions and the
obvious shortcomings in it during many years, it has not been able to
achieve progress in it or meet the needs of the citizen, so it has
become incumbent on all state institutions today, especially since Iraq
is looking forward to making progress and development related to
reality economic, social and political to give human rights great
importance through a number of laws and legislation that guarantee
the rights of individuals from all segments of the people And what can
the Iraqi citizen from the feeling that he lives in a country that
provides and protects his rights as a citizen and that those rights
cannot be compromised and that the state and its institutions work to
strengthen and protect them, which will have the greatest impact on
the work of the state and the citizen's sense of satisfaction with its
work that provides them with these rights, which will be reflected in a
form or another on the state's policies and its endeavor to achieve the
desired progress and development.
