training programme

The inventWater training programme will not only result in innovative, risk-taking fellows pushing the state-of-the-art further, but also in water professionals who will be at the same time entrepreneurial and attentive to the diversity of human dimensions (geographic, gender, cultural) involved in the impacts of climate change.

inventWater training is based on three pillars:

1. Network-wide training events.

2. Local structured basic cross-cutting training.

3. Complementary online training (e-learning)

improved climate, impact and adaptation modelling

The participation of the non-academic sector is a key component of our training program. Our strategy of strong inter-sectoral linkages implies that some ESRs need to cover secondments in academic Beneficiaries and
non-academic Partner Organizations.
