عن الحدث: 

Access to water is crucial for agriculture and sanitation. Without it, a community can quickly be destroyed. Water is life.

As the occupying force, Israel controls water resources, denying them to Palestinians. The annexation of water threatens Palestinian health, culture and survival.

The Institute for Palestine Studies and the Palestinian American Research Center (PARC) invite you to attend a webinar on this subject. Our panel of speakers will discuss the implications of what the loss of water means for Palestine.

The event will be live-streamed to IPS' Facebook page.
