About
Ilana Meallem is an Environmental Studies Masters student conducting research in environmental and health impacts of inadequate solid waste disposal services amongst the minority Bedouin community in the Negev, Israel. As the treatment of the Indigenous Bedouins in the Negev is a critical example of environmental/social injustice, the data that Ilana has collected is of great importance to grassroots advocates and government ministries (health and environment), and has already led to some very interesting projects. In particular, the biogas project is targeting the women of the community both as a solution to women's health issues and as a tool of empowerment.
