An introduction to the film "Sustainable Nation" by Eli Lipshitz, Head of Public Diplomacy at Embassy of Israel followed by a screening of the film, which is a new hour-long documentary from Imagination Productions. The film follows three individuals who are doing their part to bring sustainable water solutions to an increasingly thirsty planet.

Using solutions developed in water-poor Israel, they are working to change the status quo of a world where one in ten people lacks access to safe drinking water.

But water is just the beginning. The work of this visionary trio highlights the nexus between food, energy and water and underscores how solving these enormous challenges can help free women, and the world, from life-threatening poverty, illness and lack of opportunity.
