What if the world’s harshest climates became the next frontier for solving humanity’s biggest challenges?

In this episode of IsraelTech, Yoel Israel sits down with Sivan Cohen Shachari, VP of Innovation at The DeserTech & Climate Innovation Center, to explore how Israel’s Negev desert is becoming a global proving ground for climate resilience and sustainable tech.

From her early work in educational leadership to shaping policy for desert communities, Sivan is now building a one-of-a-kind ecosystem uniting academia, industry, and impact-driven entrepreneurs to tackle desertification, food insecurity, water scarcity, and more - right from Be'er Sheva.

▶️ Topics Covered:

- What is Desert Tech and why does it matter?

- Why the Negev is a strategic launchpad for climate innovation

- How desertification drives global migration - and how tech can help

- The surprising role of bird migration, algae farming, and solar-agri dual-use in shaping sustainable ecosystems

Whether you're in tech, policy, or just curious about the future of climate solutions - this is a must-watch.

💬 Drop a comment: Should we preserve deserts or green them? Can tech scale fast enough to outpace climate change?
