Deadline to apply for Netherlands Fellowship Programme (NFP): 1 October 2013
Wageningen UR Centre for Development Innovation is organizing the Training on ‘International training of trainers on IWRM ‘ in the Netherlands from 16 June – 4 July 2014. Support to participate in this training programme is available from the Netherlands Fellowship Programme (NFP).
One of the difficulties to use water wisely is the division of responsibilities between different authorities. This often results in fragmented and competitive approaches in the use of rivers, lakes, wetlands and other water resources. Yet for current and future water security it is vital to maintain and restore wetlands as a critical water infrastructure.
Course objectives
Upon completion of the course applicants will:
- have a deeper understanding of the meaning of integrated water resources management
- have deepened your understanding of the essential steps towards IWRM
- have improved skills and be familiar with supportive tools to facilitate multi-stakeholder processes and societal learning
- have improved your training and communication skills
- have the skills in developing curricula to develop capacity in IWRM
Target audience
This course has been designed for (future) trainers in IWRM; for wetland managers, river basin and land-use planners, policymakers, consultants, researchers, NGO and company staff having affinity with training; and for all who wish to become a (better) water steward. Competence in the English language is required.
