Abstract

This study examines the challenge of freshwater security faced by Israel, Jordan, and Palestine, and mechanisms for multilateral collaboration that have been developed in order to create a Red Sea–Dead Sea conduit. This article outlines the proposed conduit as a major collaborative project which hinges on the engagement of both state and non-state stakeholders. The argument presented here is that the feasibility and planning process has so far been successful and that the mechanisms for collaboration developed as part of this project are the reason why. Overall conclusions suggest that the importance of freshwater security and the agency of international state and non-state actors are largely responsible for these collaborative successes.
