Transboundary Water Management programme to take place in Mozambique and Swaziland in 2009
The Stockholm International Water Institute together with Ramboll Natura provide interactive and cross- disciplinary international training programmes in Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) and Transboundary Water Management (TWM).
In 2009, a two part programme in Transboundary Water Management will be held in Mozambique and Swaziland, March 23 - April 3 and in Sweden, June 8-12.
The programme provides a meeting place for professionals involved in water issues around the world, with the aim of building both personal and institutional bridges. The training programme further draws on regional and global experience from transboundary water resources management and discusses legal frameworks and novel techniques for enhancing the broad benefits of shared waters.
The programme will engage each participant in mentor and peer reviews on work plans and projects, discussions, expert panels and group work, role plays as well as field visits and in-depth case studies. Participants represent a broad group of water resources-related stakeholders, such as governments, NGOs, media, private sector and academia.
More information, including the Course Brochure, Application Form, and the List of Eligible Countries is also available on SIWI’s website.
The Closing Date for Applications is October 31, 2008.
