What are some of the biggest environmental challenges facing Israel today — and where can science and conservation make a difference?

Join Prof. Daniel Chamovitz, President of Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, for a wide-ranging conversation on climate change, sustainability and the future of Israel’s natural environment.

A leading plant geneticist and global expert on food security and plant science, Prof. Chamovitz will share his perspective on some of the key environmental questions occupying Ben-Gurion University’s School of Sustainability and Climate Change today.

He and Jay Shofet, SPNI’s Director of Partnerships and Development, will also discuss areas where the two organizations are working together — from water and urban nature to the protection of critical migration stopover sites.
