Inow Asia: Development of innovative multilevel formation programs for the new water leading professionals in South East Asia

Description

Today, more than ever the availability and management of water resources are the key issues for the socio-economic development and its impact. We need new solutions to managing water resources to offset the rising challenges to water security from population growth and climate change. Especially vulnerable to this point are countries in Southeast of Asia (SEA), which face severe challenges related to environmental dangers, and their situation will worsen due to current climate change predictions. Thus, these countries need competent and knowledgeable water professionals, who can lead the modernisation of water resources management and guarantee their sustainable socio-economic development, a priority in SEA.Currently, existent Master- and PhD programs in the field of water, environment, and natural resources are unequally implemented and they are based on traditional teaching methodologies that form old-school professionals.To this end, InowAsia will transfer to participating EU HEIs the knowledge and experience available about the implementation of innovative master programmes onto water resources management field. The main idea is to jointly design an innovative training programme based on modular and flexible water resources combining the on-line and problem-based methodology to complement some of the existing postgraduate programs, and also to co-design and implement water-oriented living labs in the campus of each PC HEI. As a result, a new generation of Asian leading professionals in the field of water will be incorporated into the water labour market, with a global view of the sector challenges, a strong background in sustainable water management, but with a specific approach to the local demands.This project aims to create an International multilevel network of postgraduate students, professors and water professionals to reinforce postgraduate curricula in critical economic aspects related to water in SEA, including innovative knowledge.
