Capacity Building for Integrated Water Resources Management in South Africa

This project (2010–2018) was a collaborative initiative between the University of Twente (ITC), Nuffic, and the Cape Peninsula University of Technology (CPUT). It aimed to strengthen the capacity of South African water professionals in Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM). Within ITC, the project is categorised under Resource Security. Led technically by Dr. Ben Maathuis, the program focused on training staff to use geospatial tools and satellite data for more sustainable, locally-oriented water resource management.
