    Preliminary surveys indicate that the rate of population increase in Iraq is 3% annually, which means the birth of about one million people a year, and the influx of such a number almost to the labor force, which is a huge growth requires to meet and meet the needs of comprehensive development plans, according to an expert on economic affairs Who warned that economic management in the country "if we remain on this approach, we will save tragedies."

    For its part, stresses the Supreme National Committee for Population Policies of the Secretariat of the Council of Ministers on the importance of conducting accurate surveys to update the population data, and control rates of growth. The committee chairman discussed the results of the previous surveys conducted by the Ministry of Planning in cooperation with UNFPA and the cooperation plans that were presented in the National Population Document in line with And the importance of implementing a statistical survey to obtain the latest mechanisms that contribute to the establishment of a comprehensive system that includes health, social, economic, demographic and other aspects, and the implementation of the outputs and activities of the national policy of Alaska N, and the importance of a thorough survey showing the number of migrants abroad.

    The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) defines as an international development agency that began operations in 1969 and promotes the right of every woman, man and child to a life of health and equal opportunity and supports countries in their use of population data needed for anti-poverty policies and programs that enable Every pregnancy is desirable, every birth is safe, young people are protected against HIV / AIDS, and women are treated humanely. Amer Jouahri said in an interview with Al-Mada that the most important thing for the plan is the development plans in the public budgets and what should be included.

    He adds: Yes, it is good that the Prime Minister today and during his regional visit the slogan "peace and development" In the world, because when we say sustainable development, what is meant is comprehensive development that includes all sectors, and sustainable that ensures its sustainability and development, which we should focus on not only on statistics and figures, these must coincide with real plans and practical measures to promote the economic reality of the country.

    "The problem is that the government has not yet been able to resolve the 2018 budget. At the same time, it is working on the five-year national development plans for the years 2018 to 2022, and here we must know what we will do.

    Do we depend on local revenues? Especially since we face the process of demographic change in the areas occupied by the organization of the preacher of the terrorist earlier, and the provincial councils are also in those provinces to coordinate with the federal government to develop future development plans for the development of the economy and the absorption of unemployment, and do not care D only on ages.

    He stressed that the file to face population growth is an economic file par excellence, and we must have people competent to manage it properly, economic management in the country if it remains on this approach will save tragedies, because Iraq today in all its provinces and even the capital contains unemployment hundreds of thousands of young people The plans should be implemented with urgent measures.

    These plans should have priorities. The most important of these plans should be to increase the highways, especially those that are connected to the dry canal such as the railway lines and land lines, and to work on the construction of housing projects.

    Civil society and economic associations to start a project or two projects to consider as an example of strength inside and outside, because any project is implemented must be moving the Iraqi economy and improve the investment environment is not valid at the present time, which must move the private sector and the public, Whether the government implemented projects or engaged with the private sector, it is important to move now.

    To find out the latest survey to show the high rate of population growth in Iraq, we could not obtain permission from the Ministry of Planning, to be adopted the latest survey conducted by the end of last year, which announced the rise of the proportion of males in Iraq to 51%, noting that the population in 2016 "The Central Statistics Agency is working on preparing a vision for the future development of the population of Iraq in light of the annual population growth rates," the ministry said, pointing to a rise in the proportion of population aged 15-64 year to 58% for 2016.

    It is noteworthy that Iraq was unable to conduct the census during the last period as a result of the lack of agreement between the government and the Kurdistan region on some of the materials on the form and the security turmoil that followed in some areas and the population of Iraq in the 1979 census 12 million, and then rose to 16.3 million In the 1987 census and to 22 million in 1998.
