Applications are invited for the Rotary Scholarships for Water and Sanitation Professionals. The collaboration between The Rotary Foundation (TRF) and IHE Delft Institute for Water Education is all about dealing with global water and sanitation problems.
They want to train more experts who can come up with, plan, and put into action solutions in countries that are still developing. Every year, this partnership gives out scholarships for students studying at IHE Delft in the Netherlands.
The goal of these scholarships is to build strong, lasting connections between Rotarians and skilled water and sanitation professionals in their communities. Since they started working together in 2012, they’ve already given out over 165 scholarships.
What is the Eligibility?
To be selected, the candidate must be academically accepted into the IHE Delft Institute for Water Education’s MSc Programme in Water and Sustainable Development, to any of the following thematic tracks:
- Water and Health
- Water, Food, and Energy
- Water Resources and Ecosystems Health
- Water Hazards, Risks, and Climate
Once a candidate is considered suitable, the sponsoring Rotary Club, along with the candidate, submits a fully completed application form to the joint Rotary/IHE Delft selection committee (details provided below). This submission should also be copied to the District Governor and District Rotary Foundation Chair of their district.
