Water Management for Climate Adaptation
Master
The Water Management for Climate adaptation programme aims to equip the water professionals of the future with knowledge of the relevant natural processes and state of the art of water management, concerning the availability, quality and safety of water. Climate change can lead to water shortage or excess, and affect the quality of water with devastating effects on the populations and ecosystems. Adaptation to the effects of climate change is possible through water management.
The water professionals of the future also must be able to navigate through decision making structures at the global, regional and local levels to be able to effectively implement plans in water management. The Water Management for Climate Adaptation master's programme will give you insights into the implementation and governance of water measures, according to the legislative frameworks that are in place.
The programme also features a living lab component, where students are able to implement what they learn in the field through action based research. The living lab will take place at the Delta Climate Center in Zeeland in the Netherlands.
