المستخلص

The phenomenon of international organizations is one of the relatively recent phenomena in the history of the international law and international relations, which is a phenomenon that, despite its novelty, has been able in the form and in the way it desired to occupy its place and to play its assigned role, regardless of the negatives which erode its performance from time to time[1].
As for what is meant by the resolution of the conflict through international organizations, it is the ability of the organization to Crystallize a set of rules, agreed upon by the member states to settle what may arise between them from disputes peacefully, with the effective application of those rules as far as possible in what might be resulted  from disputes[2].
In this context, we emphasize an important point, which is not only new the role of international organizations in settling international disputes in general or their existence as an important factor in the framework of international relations, the evidence, is the text of the covenant of the League of Nations on this role, but what is new to it is also that this kind of the disputes in which the environment is the main component.
It should be noted that most of the international organizations were established at a time when there were not in it, environmental protection issues receive official and popular attention, and for this came most of the charters of these organizations devoid of any text or texts include the protection of the environment as one of the goals that the international organizations operate on its achievement[3].
 International organizations of all kinds contribute an ample share of the resolving of the environmental disputes, whether by establishing new subsidiary authorities or by issuing many recommendations, declarations, and decisions that contribute by one way or another in preventing and settling these disputes, whether with the aim of preventing the environmental damages before they occur or with the aim of settling disputes arising from these damages after their occurrence[4].
There are also some regional judicial bodies in general or specialized in the field of human rights; their role in the field of dispute settlement began to emerge concerning the depletion of the natural resources or related to claiming the right in the environment.
Our study of this topic will be from two aspects: (first) the role of international in settling States international environmental disputes, and (second) the role of regional organizations and the agencies specialized settling States environmental international dispute.

ملخص البحث
تعد ظاهرة المنظمات الدولية من الظواهر الحديثة نسبيا في تاريخ القانون الدولي والعلاقات الدولية، وهي الظاهرة التي، وعلى الرغم من حداثتها، استطاعت بالشكل والأسلوب الذي أرادته أن تحتل مكانها وتقوم بالدور المنوط بها؛ وذلك بغض النظر عن السلبيات التي تعيق أدائها من وقت لآخر. [1]
وأما بالنسبة لما هو مقصود بتسوية المنازعات عن طريق المنظمات الدولية فهو قدرة المنظمة على بلورة مجموعة من القواعد تتفق عليها الدول الأعضاء لحل ما قد ينشأ بينها من منازعات على نحوٍ سلمي، مع التطبيق الفعال لتلك القواعد قدر الإمكان فيما قد يثور من منازعات. [2]
وفي إطار هذا السياق نؤكد على نقطة مهمة، وهي ليس الجديد فقط دور المنظمات الدولية في تسوية المنازعات الدولية بشكل عام أو وجودها كعامل مهم في إطار العلاقات الدولية، والدليل هو نص ميثاق عصبة الأمم على هذا الدور، ولكن الجديد فيها أيضا أن هذا النوع من النزاعات تكون البيئة العنصر الرئيسي فيه.
وإنه لمن الجدير بالذكر أن أغلب المنظمات الدولية قد أنشئت في وقت لم يكن فيه قضايا حماية البيئة تحظى باهتمام رسمي وشعبي، ولهذا جاءت أغلب مواثيق هذه المنظمات خالية من أي نص أو نصوص تتضمن حماية البيئة كأحد الأهداف التي تعمل المنظمات الدولية على تحقيقها. [3]
وتساهم المنظمات الدولية على اختلاف أنواعها بنصيب وافر في حل المنازعات البيئية، سواء من خلال إنشاء هيئات فرعية جديدة، أو من خلال إصدار العديد من التوصيات والإعلانات والقرارات التي تساهم بشكل أو بآخر في منع وتسوية هذه المنازعات، سواء بهدف منع الأضرار البيئية قبل وقوعها، أو بهدف تسوية المنازعات الناشئة عن هذه الأضرار بعد وقوعها. [4]
كما أن هناك بعض الهيئات القضائية الإقليمية بشكل عام أو تلك المتخصصة في مجال حقوق الإنسان، قد بدأ يبرز دورها في مجال تسوية المنازعات المتعلقة باستنزاف الموارد الطبيعية أو المتعلقة بالمطالبة بالحق في البيئة.
وسوف تكون دراستنا لهذا الموضوع من جانبين: (أولاً) دور المنظمات الدولية في تسوية المنازعات البيئية الدولية للدول، و(ثانياً) دور المنظمات الإقليمية والهيئات المتخصصة في تسوية المنازعات البيئية الدولية للدول.
