TitleWater conservation and its perception in Palestine: A case study
Untitled
Abstract

This paper describes a pilot project, based upon a specific approach for encouraging effective water use in schools. The project included (a) constructing two low‐cost sewage‐treatment plants for irrigation water re‐use in two schools, and (b) conducting an awareness campaign for effective water use in fifteen schools in the Jenin rural area. Data show that the campaign increased the pupils' knowledge of water and positively impacted on attitudes and practices. Statistical analysis demonstrates that good knowledge and positive attitudes in students will result in improved effective water use. The schools with pilot sewage‐treatment plants for irrigation water re‐use benefited the most and encouraged students to modify their water‐use practices.
