The Southern African Science Service Centre for Climate Change and Adaptive Land management (SASSCAL) recently launched its Graduate Studies Programme in Integrated Water Resource Management (SGSP-IWRM).
During the launch of the three-year programme, which will be undertaken at Namibia’s University of Science and Technology (NUST) from 2022 to 2024, 15 students from four of SASSCAL member states received their scholarships.
The programme aims to establish an innovative and excellent regional collaborative doctoral programme in IWRM; develop tailor-made short courses for decision-makers and industry; develop a new curriculum for a new regional PhD qualification in IWRM; and develop a blueprint document for the transformation of the SGSP-IWRM into a SASSCAL Centre/Institute of Excellence in IWRM at NUST.
