Project Description: This project brought college students in Jordan and New York City together to address United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #6: Clean Water and Sanitation, through an exploration and comparative analysis of the quality of drinking water and clean water sustainability in different neighborhoods/regions in Jordan and New York City. Students analyzed water samples for key metrics such as metals content, pH, and total dissolved solids, in order to determine the unique challenges faced in each country in their clean water sustainability efforts and to propose solutions to solve or mitigate these challenges.
