Envision a world where 120 billion square meters of fertile land degrade into desert every year. This alarming transformation poses immense challenges to life in remote desert regions, where extreme climate changes, water scarcity, degraded soil quality, and a lack of infrastructure converge to create a uniquely harsh environment. The urgency to find solutions extends beyond deserts. Urban environments are increasingly strained by the need for energy efficiency, resilient construction materials, and food security for a growing global population. The DeserTech and Climate Innovation Center, anchored in the Negev, is dedicated to addressing these pressing global challenges.
