Abstract
Daily water struggles in Lebanon: invisible and unjust. This article talks about how water insecurity in Lebanon leads to the development of an informal water market (tankers, bottled water and wells). While this informal system allows people to overcome their water shortages, it leads to stark socioeconomic, health, and environmental disparities between lower and higher income communities. We need a holistic strategy to overcome our water struggles.
