CSMonitor: Environmentalists tap Palestinian schoolchildren to clean Jerusalem’s holy valley
The Water Resources Action Project’s installation and program at the Sur Baher Girls School in East Jerusalem was recently profiled in the Christian Science Monitor. The article entitled Environmentalists tap Palestinian schoolchildren to clean Jerusalem’s holy valley focuses on the school’s environmental education program and ongoing efforts to reduce the school’s contributions to the “Six Olympic-size pools of trash and sewage [that] are dumped in Kidron Valley, which abuts Jerusalem’s holiest sites, every year.” The article appears in the April 22 online edition as part of the news organization’s ongoing coverage of current events and issues in the Middle East.
