Why EcoPeace?
Water is at the center of an environmental crisis in the Middle East. In the most water-scarce region on the planet, climate change and conflict have made a problematic situation even more desperate.
Water can be a source of either conflict or collaboration. At EcoPeace, we believe real change is possible when we all work together. So we bring together Jordanians, Palestinians, and Israelis to create shared solutions, taking a bottom-up approach to educate local constituents, as well as a top-down approach to advance vital policies.
The good news is that it’s working! Thanks to your support, students are coming together across borders, leaders are taking action and real progress is being made.
Real change is possible when we all work together.
And that includes you!
