From the Source

About me

Introduction From the Source is a non-profit multimedia initiative which tells the story of the water crisis in the Middle East and North Africa in image and text. Established in March 2009 by passionate documentary filmmaker Joshka Wessels and journalist Francesca de Chatel, From the Source is developing a network of like-minded print journalists, filmmakers and photographers who are keen to report on water and environmental issues from the field. As part of the initiative, we also organise trainings for young journalists in the region to improve their environmental reporting skills and increase public awareness of the growing water crisis.
