Our aim is to inform decision-makers about the extent of destruction to physical and institutional infrastructure resulting from the Israel-Hamas war. We propose ways to address immediate needs and rebuild for the future, envisioning a sustainable “day after.” The enormous infrastructural damage in Gaza directly exacerbates the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip, impacting access to clean water and healthcare for Gaza’s population, as well as for 134 Israelis held captive by Hamas and other groups. This document offers recommendations for urgent action to address humanitarian challenges and rebuild for the long term. These recommendations, formulated by Israeli professionals, stem from extensive discussions in small working groups and broader forums. Following an overview of guiding principles, the paper details recommendations by infrastructure type: energy, water, sewage, and health. Each chapter comprises several sections: (1) Pre-war status quo. (2) The present situation (after more than five months of war). (3) Recommendations for immediate, medium, and long-term actions, including off-grid infrastructure. (4) Proposed implementation mechanisms.

It is based on the main points raised at the fifth meeting of the research and policy group on “Israel in the Mediterranean” held at the IDC School of Sustainability in Herzliya on February 13, 2020 at the initiative of the Mitvim Institute, the Hebrew University’s Leonard Davis Institute for International Relations and Haifa University’s National Security Studies Center. The paper highlights the vulnerability of the Eastern Mediterranean Basin to the climate change crisis, the key challenges it poses to different aspects of life in the region, as well as the opportunities for Israel and for regional cooperation in tackling it. The paper sums up the discussions and presentations at the meeting and does not reflect agreement among all participants
