News IPartial partial fellowships to participate in the International water footprint training course in Amsterdam, 16-18 November 2010

The Water Footprint Network is offering an international water footprint training course in Amsterdam, 16-18 November 2010. The training course is aimed at professionals in the water and environmental sector interested to learn about the application of the water footprint concept and tools in their daily practice. The course aims at professionals from both business and government, and also consultants that advise corporations or governments.

The course is mainly technical; it addresses questions regarding how to carry out a water footprint assessment. In addition, time is spent on understanding how water footprint assessment can ultimately contribute to better water governance and more sustainable water strategies.

There are still some partial fellowships available for non-OECD-country participants, students and non-commercial organizations.
