Today, nearly 80% of the basic food consumed is imported. – There are 500,000 hectares of arable, unfarmed land with adequate water. – Iraq’s population is expected to boom, reaching almost 39 million people by 2015. Given the expected population growth and Iraq's high dependency on agricultural imports, there are a number of agriculture opportunities for investment in order to more efficiently and economically satisfy Iraqi food demands. Republic of Iraq – National Investment Commission 4 Agriculture • Specific Opportunities – We have identified 48 projects across the agriculture sector, in every province of Iraq. – A number of these are infrastructure projects necessary to jump start the agriculture sector and include constructing of chicken processing plans, slaughter houses, and grain silos. – In addition to providing much needed infrastructure, equipment, and jobs these projects will have a multiplier effect on the agriculture economy providing a supply chain of opportunities for the private sector.

Republic of Iraq – National Investment Commission 9 Banking and Finance • Overview – Key policy changes that have been introduced to modernize the Iraqi economy and financial system, including the new currency, greater fiscal and budgetary discipline, and trade and financial reforms. – The Central Bank has increased its independence, including its supervisory authorities over the private banks. – Iraq’s monetary policies are increasingly liberal. – The implementation of anti-money laundering laws and the establishment of the Iraqi Securities Commission (ISC) will strengthen the Iraqi financial system. Republic of Iraq – National Investment Commission 10 Banking and Finance • NO SPECIFIC PROJECTS Republic of Iraq – National Investment Commission 11 Electricity • Overview – Currently, Iraq’s power system barely meets half of peak demand. Since 2003, electricity consumption has increased by a rate of at least 15% per year. – As stability has returned, Iraqis have bought large quantities of electronic goods, which together with expanding economic activity, means that consumption is growing furiously and outstripping supply. – The current electrical demand for Iraq has risen to approximately 13,000 MW through the summer of 2009 with existing power generation capacity of approximately 6,000 MW. This creates an immediate need for doubling the electrical output within Iraq. – Several future plant sites have been identified which would increase the capacity to approximately 24,000 MW. – The value of these additional electricity and power investments was estimated at $4.5 billion USD over a four year period. – To meet the growing demand and supply shortfalls, the MoE is undertaking one of the world’s most ambitious electricity system expansion programs. Republic of Iraq – National Investment Commission 12 Electricity • General Opportunities – State Owned Enterprises (SOEs): Current power plants are run by the state, but as Iraq is opening its investment borders, they are looking to partner with international power companies. – Other power sources: also identified are some fuel related projects like the construction of methane gas gathering, treatment, and delivery facilities. – Inputs: the MoE has considered several different models for international investors to enter Iraq's electricity sector and is actively exploring these options. • Specific Opportunities – We have identified at least 31 projects across the power sector, in every province of Iraq. A number of these are infrastructure projects necessary to jump start the sector and include construction of plants. – In addition to providing much needed infrastructure, equipment, and jobs these projects will have a multiplier effect on the electrical economy providing a supply chain of opportunities for the private sector.

  • Iom Emergency Needs Assessments Post February 2006 Displacement in Iraq 15 April 2008 Bi-Weekly Report
    IOM EMERGENCY NEEDS ASSESSMENTS POST FEBRUARY 2006 DISPLACEMENT IN IRAQ 15 APRIL 2008 BI-WEEKLY REPORT Following the February 2006 bombing of the Samarra Al-Askari Mosque, escalating sectarian violence in Iraq caused massive displacement, both internal and to locations abroad. In coordination with the Iraqi government’s Ministry of Displacement and Migration (MoDM), IOM continues to assess Iraqi displacement through a network of partners on the ground. Significantly fewer Iraqis were displaced in 2007 than were displaced in 2006, suggesting that internal displacement in Iraq has slowed. However, displacement continues to occur in some locations and the humanitarian situation of those already displaced is worsening. The limited returns that have occurred so far represent only a small fraction of the displaced population. Internal displacement in Iraq continues to be a major humanitarian crisis, demanding both assessment and a targeted humanitarian response. The estimated number of displaced since February 2006 is almost 1,504,000 individuals 1. This figure, combined with the estimated 1,200,000 individuals 2 who were internally displaced before February 2006, results in a total of more than 2.7 million individuals displaced within Iraq to date. BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY ON IRAQI DISPLACEMENT: Displacement Displacement continues to occur due to military operations and generalized violence. The recent insecurity and fighting in Baghdad and the south, especially Basrah, caused low-scale displacement, although the figures continue to be difficult to confirm due to ongoing insecurity and restrictions on movement. Over the past few weeks, more than 100 families were displaced in Babylon and 230 families fled to Wassit from Al-Mada’in district in Baghdad.

  • Iraq's Stolen Election
    Iraq’s Stolen Election: How Assyrian Representation Became Assyrian Repression ABOUT ASSYRIANS An estimated 1.5 million people globally comprise a distinct, indigenous ethnic group. Tracing their heritage to ancient Assyria, Assyrians speak an ancient language referred to as Assyrian, Syriac, Aramaic, or Neo-Aramaic. The contiguous territory that forms the traditional Assyrian homeland includes parts of southern and south- eastern Turkey, northwestern Iran, northern Iraq, and northeastern Syria. The Assyrian population in Iraq, estimated at approximately 200,000, constitutes the largest remaining concentration of the ethnic group in the Middle East. The majority of these reside in their ancestral homelands in the Nineveh Plain and within the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. Assyrians are predominantly Christian. Some ethnic Assyrians self-identify as Chaldeans or Syriacs, depending on church denomination. Assyrians have founded five Eastern Churches at different points during their long history: the Ancient Church of the East, the Assyrian Church of the East, the Chaldean Catholic Church, the Syriac Catholic Church, and the Syriac Orthodox Church. The majority of Assyrians who remain in Iraq today belong to the Chaldean and Syriac churches. Assyrians represent one of the most consistently persecuted communities in Iraq and the wider Middle East. ABOUT THE ASSYRIAN POLICY INSTITUTE Founded in May 2018, the Assyrian Policy Institute works to support Assyrians as they struggle to maintain their rights to the lands they have inhabited for thousands of years, their ancient language, equal opportunities in education and employment, and to full participation in public life. www.assyrianpolicy.org For questions and media inquiries, @assyrianpolicy contact us via email at [email protected].
