On this episode of SEPADPod Simon speaks with Marwa Daoudy, Assistant Professor at the Centre for Arab Studies, Georgetown University. Marwa is the author of The Origins of the Syrian Conflict: Climate Change and Human Security (Cambridge University Press, 2020) and also Le partage des eaux entre la Syrie, l’Irak et la Turquie: Négociation, sécurité et asymétrie des pouvoirs [Moyen-orient] (CNRS-Editions, 2005). On this episode, Simon and Marwa talk about the intersectionality of environmental politics, discourse and power around environmental issues, water in Middle Eastern politics, and the Syrian conflict. Lots to reflect on!
