Training course on “Managing Pollution”, 2nd to 6th May 2011 at Colombo, Sri Lanka – Last date to apply 11th April 2011
Posted on 06 Apr, 2011 05:07 PMPollution is a serious and neglected aspect of water resources management, having multiple health and environmental consequences and effectively reducing water resource availability by making it unfit for use. The situation is by no means unique and repeats itself in many countries where a focus on development, a lack of capacity, funds or willingness to apply the regulations results in widespread water quality issues.
The focus on water quality of both the 2010 World Water Day and World Water Week suggests that a change is taking place. Cap-Net, UNEP, UNEP-DHI Centre for Water and Environment and capacity building networks Nile IWRM Net and Cap-Net Lanka have developed this course as part of a collaborative programme addressing pollution management. Water managers and capacity builders working on pollution management are invited to apply.
