And supported by the two operational questions: How are individuals in the dam-affected areas wellbeing and identity interlinked to their native areas including the surrounding archaeological sites? and How does the Makhoul Dam including its decision making process affect individuals in the dam-affected areas’ wellbeing and identity?
