Palestine attends UN desertification summit
A delegation from Palestine participated in the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification and Drought held in Mongolia. The delegation emphasized that climate change, particularly rising temperatures and decreasing rainfall, increases the risks of drought and harms food and water security in Palestine. They explained that the Israeli occupation exacerbates the effects of drought through restrictions on resources and agricultural activities, which impacts the resilience of rural communities. The delegation also emphasized the importance of managing drought risks proactively through the development of monitoring and early warning systems, as well as improving water and agricultural management to enhance Palestinians' capacity to adapt. They reaffirmed that sustainable international funding is essential to support adaptation efforts and build resilience.
