DRINKING WATER SHORTAGE

Water scarcity and climate change combine to create and existential threat to the people in this region.

BORDERS AND CONFLICT​

In this region, all water comes from shared resources, which means it’s essential to work across borders for solutions to be possible.

Why EcoPeace?
