Abstract

The research aimed to find out the role of spending on education in alleviating poverty in Iraq for the period (2021_2004) and developing appropriate solutions to alleviate poverty, as well as the research sought to measure the role of spending on education in Iraq during the selected period of (2021_2004), based on the premise that although the percentage of current spending of public spending is large, the percentage of spending on education is small, so its contribution was weak in alleviating poverty in Iraq,  As the spending on education in Iraq during the research period was affected by many shocks and critical and difficult conditions, the most important of which is the fluctuation of oil prices and the long wars against terrorism, as well as the Corona virus, all of this had an impact on oil prices and therefore public expenditures in Iraq are primarily related to oil prices because they are the first financier of public spending in Iraq, and the result is that what is directed to spending on education is little and did not contribute significantly to poverty alleviation in Iraq , Where the analytical method and the standard method were used in data analysis.
