Muna Dajani

Dr. Muna Dajani is an action researcher with a background in critical political ecology. Her work aims to understand environmental and water governance through decolonial and critical lenses, paying attention to communities' histories and relations with water and land. She holds a PhD from the Department of Geography and Environment at the London School of Economics (LSE). Her doctoral research focused on examining community struggles for rights to water and land resources in settler colonial contexts in Palestine and the occupied Syrian Golan Heights, with special attention to how farming practices acquire political subjectivity. Her work also focuses on the Upper Jordan and Yarmouk River Basins, both exploring communities disrupted relations with water in highly contested and politicised transboundary river basins.
