Abstract
Environmental water rights refer to the water flow of a river, wetland or coastal areas that should exist to guarantee the integrity, efficiency and ultimately the survival of ecosystems. In international documents such as the Ramsar Convention, Convention on Biological Diversity and the World Commission on Dams resolution explicitly recognized the right of environmental wetlands on water rights. In addition, the right to clean air, right to life, right to health and the need to develop healthy relationships between countries, as a human right that have substantial grounds to justify environmental water rights. Based on these principles, environmental water rights are one of international peremptory norms that are binding to all State Parties and non-Parties. With regard to Hamoun wetland, apart from contractual obligations and according to human rights conventions the government of Afghanistan is obliged to allocate environmental water rights of the Helmand River; But Iran's share of agricultural and drinking water rights is based on a fixed contract. This article attempts to identify the environmental principles of the right to water rights in domestic law, international environmental documents and human rights.
