Israelis, Palestinians work together in bid to solve local water shortage
The article entitled Israelis, Palestinians work together in bid to solve local water shortage, describes the history and challenges facing the Palestinian village of Wadi Fukin, but also about cooperative efforts between the 2 GWN partnering communities of Wadi Fukin and Tzur Hadassah that are "working together to preserve the valley and protect it from the blights of the large settlement."
Journalist Akiva Elder also mentions the use of the WaterCare book that FoEME is promoting in all its GWN communities: "So it is that while politicians speak loftily about 'normalization,' in Israeli, Palestinian and Jordanian schools they are studying from the same 'Water Book,' which was written in Hebrew and Arabic."
