The Right to Water in Four Arab Countries

In 2005 I participated in a regional research project supported by the Heinrich Boell Foundation- Middle East office to develop a comparative study on the application of the UN Right to Water concept in four Arab countries; Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan and Palestine.
Each country study aims to identify the scale of knowledge of and commitment to the UN concept in the region and is meant to identify the main areas of concern in each country regarding water as a human right
 I wrote the study on Jordan and the full document can now be downloaded from this link
