Bass Connections project team: Exploring the Intersection of Energy and Peace-Building through Film
This film explores the relationship between UN Peacekeeping missions and water consumption in post-conflict settings. It delves into the pressures associated with sustainable water use between outside actors and local communities, refugees and internally displaced peoples. Using archival footage from United Nations Environment Programme assessments and expert interviews, we hope to shed light on the complexities associated with water and development and the ways in which UNEP is addressing these issues.
