The Arab-Israeli conflict is one of the most complex in the world. It has all the divisive elements of ethnicity, religion, borders and natural resources. EcoPeace Middle East is an organisation that seeks to create lasting peace though environmental cooperation and protection of shared natural resources. The Jordanian project coordinator, Mohammad Bundokji, explains the innovative approach to peace building that consists in generating positive mutual dependencies for water and energy.
