AGMA's Annual Stream Conference
-
AGMA's Annual Stream Conference brought over 250 scientists, government professionals and civil society to the table to dialogue about how to preserve and enhance Israel's rivers and streams in
the face of climate change and competing needs.Israel's population is doubling every 30 years – now up to 10 million. AGMA was organized to create a professional learning community of freshwater stakeholders in Israel. In the two years since
its launch, it has developed a common vision among municipalities, national planning and regulatory agencies, architects, planners, developers, NGOs and engineers. Field trips, webinars, educational courses are bringing them all together to address freshwater
ecosystems while balancing housing and other requirements in face of semi-arid conditions and flooding from severe storms, poor drainage, and extensive development.The conference mapped out plans for restoring Israel’s streams and addressed issues like how to manage flood risks in the face of rampant development. Congrats to
