After her exploration of the impact of water scarcity on rural communities in Iraq in 2021, Susan Schulman follows the journeys of some of the climate-displaced individuals and families as they moved to the cities.

Summary/Abstract |
In October 2021, I arrived in Iraq’s southern city of Basra. Situated at the heart of the arid MENA region, Iraq is being ravaged by the soaring temperatures, drought and water scarcity characteristic of climate change. In this respect, it is but an acute representation of a global problem. But that is not all. It is also situated at the heart of what will only become an increasingly visible geopolitical problem: competition and control of natural resources. Ninety-one per cent of Iraq’s water originates in Turkey, Iran and Syria, leaving the country at the mercy of those controlling the taps upstream. Accompanied by a translator and fixer, I set out, travelling northwards from the very south, across the country, to explore how these combined forces were impacting those most directly affected and what that might forbode.

Susan Schulman travelled to Yemen and spoke to some of the people trying to make a living in a country where human intervention and climate change have turned a once fertile land into one where water is the most precious and elusive resource of all.
