2023/2024 Rotary/UNESCO-IHE
Scholarships for Water and Sanitation Professionals.
The strategic partnership between The Rotary Foundation (TRF) and IHE Delft Institute for Water Education aims to
tackle the world’s water and sanitation crisis by increasing the number of
trained professionals to devise, plan, and implement solutions in developing
and emerging countries. Through this partnership, a limited number of
scholarships are awarded annually to graduate students at IHE Delft Institute
for Water Education’s campus in the Netherlands.
These scholarships are designed to promote long-term productive
relationships between Rotarians and highly skilled water and sanitation
professionals in their communities. Since the inception of the partnership in
2012, some 150 scholarships have been awarded.
Rotarians interview and select from local candidates who have
already been admitted to the IHE Delft Institute for Water Education’s
regular MSc Programme in Water
and Sustainable Development, in one of the following thematic
tracks:
- Water and Health
- Water Resources and Ecosystems Health
- Water Hazards, Risks and Climate
When a Rotary scholarship has been awarded, the sponsoring
Rotary Club maintains contact with the scholar throughout his or her studies.
The financing of the successful candidates will be managed through Rotary’s
Global Grant process.
