Pictures of our fascinating exploration of the issue of cross-boundary water and environmental issues with a team from the Kidron Valley-Wadi Nar Master Plan, organized by Professor Richard Laster of the Hebrew University. The discussion of the possibilities and difficulties of environmental cooperation took us from Jerusalem to the municipality of al-Ubadia in the Palestinian Authority and ended at Mar Saba Monastery (founded 483 CE) overlooking the Kidron Valley water basin deep in the Judean desert.
