The statistical population included university professors, directors of education departments, and school administrators in Iraq. Qualitative data were collected through semi-structured interviews, while quantitative data were gathered using validated questionnaires. The qualitative findings indicate the presence of structural, economic, legal, cultural, and social challenges as barriers to the implementation of the scheme, while internal and external factors act as facilitators. Moreover, the feasibility assessment of the implementation reveals the necessity of stable economic conditions, socio-cultural homogeneity, and the presence of strong political will. The final implementation model was examined using structural equation modeling (SEM), and content validation was conducted through CVR and CVI indices. The results show a significant relationship between various factors and the components of the implementation model. Based on the findings, the implementation of the educational voucher scheme in Iraq requires the collaboration of all stakeholders, allocation of sufficient budget, and the establishment of appropriate legal and managerial infrastructures. This scheme could pave the way for improving the quality of education and reducing educational inequalities in the country.</p> https://www.journaldtai.com/index.php/jdtai/article/download/106/103
