Women's Water Fund
DHI Women’s Water Fund
- advancing career opportunities in water management
Call for applications


The DHI Women’s Water Fund has been created as an initiative benefiting from
the “King Hassan II Great World Water Prize” presented to Prof. Torkil Jønch
Clausen of DHI at the Fourth World Water Forum in Mexico in 2006. The
objective of the DHI Women’s Water Fund is to support women in developing
countries in advancing their career opportunities in the development and
management of water resources.

The Fund’s career programme will draw upon transfer of Danish expertise in
water resources by offering capacity building visits to Denmark. The visits
will include a combined career learning and mentoring program of two to
four weeks duration. It is the intention that the Fund will contribute to a
longer duration contact and support to the selected candidates.

The capacity building visits include: i) participation in relevant short
courses/e-learning on water resources technologies and management at M.Sc.
or Ph.D. level; ii) learning visits at Danish organisations in the field of
water; and iii) a mentoring component that includes Senior Danish managers
as mentors for each candidate. The mentoring function is intended to be
continued for one year after the visit in Denmark as a long distance
learning and support relationship.

A Diploma and Letter of Recommendation will be issued by the Governing Board
of the Fund at the end of the visit to Denmark.

For the present 2007 Call three course options/study visits are available:

* A one week PhD Course in “Water resources Management”, 4-8 June 2007,
at the Danish Technical University – see Attachment 1. The study visit to
