Water and Environmental Development Organization (WEDO) is a Palestinian non-governmental organization working in water and environmental development, sustainable natural resource management, climate resilience, and community-based development. WEDO has experience in water and wastewater management, environmental assessment, capacity building, stakeholder engagement, and supporting sustainable solutions for local communities. The organization is interested in applying GIS, spatial analysis, environmental monitoring, and participatory approaches to improve water resource management and climate-resilient agriculture. WEDO is interested in collaborating with Mediterranean and European partners on innovative solutions for brackish water desalination, renewable-energy-based water systems, water reuse, smart irrigation, and the WEFE Nexus.
