International Training Programmes for Freshwater Protection
The "International Post-Graduate Training Programme in Limnology (IPGL)" aims to strengthen the scientific capacity of developing countries to support local, in house-expertise on freshwater eco-system conservation and freshwater resource management. Capacity building strategies are implemented via a multi-level approach, from the individual to the institutional and international levels, that will enable institutions in developing countries to develop and implement solutions adapted to local situations. Thus, support of research institutions in developing countries is done in terms of human resource development, improved research facilities and strengthened international networking.
The main topics that are covered in the programme are the following:
  • Biodiversity & Evolution ecology in freshwater systems
  • Water Quality determination & environmental risk assessment
  • Fish ecology & fishery management
