“…Ensuring environmental justice in the post-conflict phase involves recognising the interrelationship of all relevant problems be they political, social, ethnic, economic or ecological (Cusato 2021;Kuehn 2000), while helping to reduce the risk of ethnic tensions that could degenerate into new episodes of violence (Killean 2022). It is necessary to bring environmental and ecological issues to the transitional justice field and overcome the 'curious silence' on nature in this area (Viaene et al 2023).…”

“…Transitional justice should not focus only on state-level responses, and scholars should analyse the implications of this field's expansion (Hansen 2012: 231). Compassionate justice (i.e., the search for balance between justice and compassion) (Marshall 2012), has been tested in other areas, 17 such as in the processes in Colombia or Peru, in which non-human victims have been recognised (Killean 2022). However, there are certain systemic problems in Iraq that will likely hamper the ability to implement creative formulas with the hope of success.…”

During the armed conflict in Iraq between 2014 and 2017, Daesh committed crimes with clear environmental effects and consequences; however, these events have not been adequately clarified. The investigation of these crimes by official bodies, such as the United Nations Investigative Team to Promote Accountability for Crimes Committed by Da’esh, is required and is still possible. Even if UNITAD’s investigative action would be mainly symbolic, it would be important because it could help to raise awareness of environmental crimes and thus also advance the emerging international agenda in the field of environment, peace and security and clarify the connection between environment and human rights. Additionally, it could have the more practical and strategic functions of laying a firm foundation for expanding the jurisdiction to pave the way for environmental peace building and helping to strengthen certain components of transitional justice in the country, in particular, by providing some reparation to victims.
