We, the Women of Jayyous
LifeSource, 2008, 34 mins

Take a tractor ride through the Jayyous countryside behind the Wall, where more than 70% of the village's land and all six of its ground water wells have been confiscated.

See the illegal Israeli dump with industrial waste from the settlements located just above Azzoun's Well, from where the Jayyous residents now get their water.

Learn about the sewage crisis affecting 90% of Palestinians in the West Bank.

And meet the women of Jayyous, who together with LifeSource, are beginning to do something about all of this.


Palestinian and Israeli Water Resources and the Segregation Wall
LifeSource, 2008, 60 cm x 90 cm

This map shows Palestinian and Israeli water resources from the Mountain Aquifer together with the Segregation Wall and Palestinian municipal boundaries, which, where they border Israel, demarcate the Green Line (the 1949 Armistice Line).  The purpose of this map is to raise awareness of the Palestinian water resources being confiscated, together with Palestinian land, by Israel.  (Jamal Press, Beitunia, Palestine).

Maps are available from our office in Huwarra (just south of Nablus) or by mail order.  Suggested donation $10 (plus shipping and handling).

Pre-order your copy of We, the Women of Jayyous today.  Suggested donation $20.

We, the Women of Jayyous is currently being screened across Palestine and Israel and in North America.  Contact info@lifesource.ps for a screening calendar or to arrange a screening.
 

LIFESOURCE is a Palestinian-led collective of people who recognize it is crucial to address the current and unfolding regional water crisis immediately – on the humanitarian level, the environmental level, and the political level. We are launching a campaign of popular research, popular education and popular action, with the goal of motivating communities to engage in their own analysis of information and direct their own courses of learning and action.
