Alternative Technology at Wadi Faynan Camp
The project used environment friendly technology to transfer an old mineral exploration camp to an environment and cultural center. The camp is located in Wadi Faynan, part of the Dana Reserve (macro GEF site), famous for its wild and haunting beauty, unique and rare flora and fauna. The Faynan area hosts the added attraction of archaeological evidence which portrays how the landscape changed over time and what the interaction was like between humans and nature.
