Advanced Institute on Global Environmental
Change and the Vulnerability of Water Resources in the
Context of the Millennium Development Goals
INTENSIVE SEMINAR ON GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE AND
WATER
UNESCO-IHE Institute for Water Education and the Institute
for Environmental Studies at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam
are organising a three-week Intensive Seminar
on Global Environmental Change and Water, to
be held in Delft in September-October 2007.
This seminar is part of the Advanced Institute
on Global Environmental Change and the Vulnerability
of Water Resources in the Context of the Millennium
Development Goals supported by the Global Change
System for Analysis, Research and Training (START),
in a partnership with the Global Water System Project
(GWSP), and with financial support from the Norwegian
Agency for Development Cooperation (NORAD), the International
Foundation for Science (IFS) and the Cooperative Programme
on Water and Climate (CPWC).
In the Seminar, Institute Fellows will examine the
relationship between climate change and water, not only
in physical terms but also in terms of the processes
of policymaking. Institute Fellows have been selected
through an international call for
Research Pre-Proposals by a blind review
process involving an international review panel of about
9 experts. Every paper proposal has been reviewed by
at least 2 international reviewers.

full programme of the Intensive Seminar is
