Expression of Interest in the design, development and delivery of an accredited Post Graduate Certificate in Integrated Water Resources Management 12 March, 2010

The Global Environment Funded (GEF) Pacific IWRM Project and the Pacific Integrated Water Resources Management Planning Programme are being implemented in a coordinated approach to support countries in the development of IWRM plans and their implementation within Pacific Island Countries.



In order to develop a more systematic professional competency and knowledge network around IWRM in each PIC it has been decided to promote the design, development and delivery of an accredited Post Graduate Certificate in Integrated Water Resources Management within an appropriately located and accredited higher educational institution with demonstrable experience in delivering accredited Postgraduate IWRM Courses.



As IWRM is a multi-disciplinary multi-stakeholder approach to water management, the course curriculum and learning units should reflect this.



The submitting Higher Educational Institution needs to provide an assurance that the programme will be formally accredited prior to the commencement of the Course in July 2010. Preference will be given to submissions that have a formally accredited programme.



The formal delivery of the programme to commence in 2010 to a minimum of 20 participants who have been selected through a process to be undertaken in conjunction with the SOPAC EU/GEF Pacific IWRM Projects.Instructions for EOI Submissions.



The Expression of Interest (EOI) must be received by IWRM SOPAC on or before Fiji Time 15h00 the 31st March 2010 in the format set out in 7 above. The EOI must be emailed to IWRM@sopac.org. Acknowledgement of receipt of email submissions must be obtained at least 1 hour after submission. If the submitting institution has not received an acknowledgement then it is their responsibility to ensure the EOI has been received.



SOPAC accepts no responsibility for any party who suffers prejudice through this process as a result of failed email submissions.



Late submissions will not be considered.



Enquiries
All enquiries regarding the expression of interest by interested
institutions can be taken up with Marc Wilson by email M.Wilson@sopac.org
