Palestine at UN Desertification Conference
A Palestinian delegation participated in the United Nations Conference on Desertification and Drought in Mongolia, where they emphasized that drought is one of the most serious challenges threatening food and water security. They noted that its impact in Palestine is increasing due to rising temperatures and declining rainfall. The delegation pointed out that the Israeli occupation exacerbates the effects of drought by imposing restrictions on access to water and land, and by destroying agricultural facilities, which hampers the Palestinians' ability to adapt and withstand these challenges. They recommended the development of early warning systems, the promotion of sustainable agriculture, improved water management, and achieving fair international funding to address climate challenges.
