Jordan, Israel
The Jordan River Peace Park is a proposed 2,000-acre park that spans a culturally, historically, and ecologically significant area of land in the river valley shared by Jordan and Israel. With the aim of encouraging cross- border cooperation in an effort to protect an ailing common resource—the polluted Jordan River and its surroundings—design concepts were developed jointly between a peacebuilding organization, university design teams, and local communities. These site-specific concepts incorporate historic structures, ancient ruins, and rehabilitated landscape elements that offer sanctuary to migrating birds, protect threatened habitats, and strengthen the region's economy by attracting new visitors.
It is credited Peace Park Multi-Layer Model: Courtesy of EcoPeace Middle East & Yale Urban Design Workshop / Yale School of Architecture.
