Dead Sea And Arava Science Center

The Dead Sea and Arava Science Center is a multi-branch Israeli regional applied-research organization and nonprofit serving a large desert region. Its field laboratories place researchers close to distinctive environmental conditions, communities, infrastructure, and operating industries, enabling practical studies and on-site data collection. The center works with regional councils, universities, government bodies, businesses, entrepreneurs, and international partners; research services support external product development and preclinical testing. National support includes Israel’s Ministry of Innovation, Science and Technology, complemented by regional and philanthropic funding, while its Ben-Gurion University of the Negev affiliation supports academic collaboration.
