The film introduces the idea of Waqf fund, a flexible and innovative financing mechanism targeting solving water problems in the Middle East region. The concept of Waqf fund is similar to trust funds where the capital for the Waqf is invested and the returns on investments are utilized for activities related to conservation. The rationale behind this notion is to secure a sustainable flow of financial resources to support sustainable development.
