This session examines some of the major environmental challenges in the Middle East, particularly around water resources, and the ways that Israelis, Jordanians, and Palestinians are cooperating to meet these challenges. Participants will experience social and environmental activism in the Middle East by focusing on three case studies that they can then use with students in their classrooms.
