Water in Israel and the Middle East: Regional Water Sustainability and Resilience
May 24, 2017
Rebecca Crown Center, Hardin Hall
Second Annual Symposium
Six scholars came together to explore technological solutions to water scarcity, such as desalination and precision agriculture; the socio-political aspects of water security in the Middle East and strategies for international cooperation to achieve water security, peace and health in the region while factoring the added complication of climate change. This interdisciplinary symposium is part of a wider collaboration between the Northwestern Center for Water Research and the Crown Center for Jewish and Israel studies supported by the Buffet institute for Global Studies.
