Moving from training of individuals ……

to strengthening capacity building institutions

Water Sector Education

www.mfa.at/adc

The Challenge

The development of the Rural Water & Sanitation Sector has to go hand in hand with human capacity building, but ….

national educational institutions do not reflect the demand of rural areas and poor communities in terms of training and applied research

donor funded capacity building follows isolated project approach and training of individuals

Consequently, the capacity gap in the water sector persists, particularly in rural areas

www.mfa.at/adc

The idea of “Sector Education”Moving from ……

training of individuals to …..

strengthening capacity building institutions

a coherent sector education concept comprises : defining expressed training demand by all stakeholder groups and

normative demand by legal setting, standards etc. coordination of potential training providers developing a sector dialogue integrating all groups and interests creation of a set of training options to meet all defined needs on all

levels using existing training institutions including practitioners creating feed back loops between training institutions and practice

www.mfa.at/adc

Tasks and strategic principles

Strategic principles to put the sector education into practice:

development of a strong institutional set up in the water sector full involvement of existing, namely local institutions and organisations instead of

creating new ones the local demand defines the topics and the actors to be trained the potential of training institution outlines who could implement the given task Use local research potential to perceive and solve local problems

…. switch from single, isolated and un-coordinated training

measures to integrated courses and curricula including official,

accepted certificates

Development of the model Origin of the idea is the result of an evaluation of the ADA funded rural water and sanitation program in Sofala province

ADA developed the locally defined demand step by step in full participation with all local and national stakeholders

the planned “sectoral education” approach is embedded in the national and local education and watsan sectors

Water Ministry asks for scale up of the model from local to national level
