This 3 year project addresses these needs of the National Water Institute by: (1) evaluating recommendations of previous capacity development projects (2) evaluating the implementation of these recommendations at INE and addressing the gaps (3) providing a didactic training to junior and senior staff of the four MSc programmes, taking into account gender and diversity (4) educating staff in academic English and mainstreaming academic English in education, and (5) development of a roadmap towards the implementation of a joint MSc programme on Adaptive Delta Planning and Management, taking into account the needs of the public and private sector at the local regional and international level.
