*Women's Water Fund - Call for applications
- career advancement for women in the water sector*

The Women’s Water Fund helps women from developing countries advance their
career opportunities in the field of water resources development and
management. The Women’s Water Fund has been created at the initiative of *
DHI* and was originally funded by the *“King Hassan II Great World Water
Prize”* presented to Professor Torkil Jønch Clausen, DHI, at the Fourth
World Water Forum in Mexico in 2006. This year, Danida (Ministry of Foreign
Affairs of Denmark) is co-sponsoring the Fund.

Women in (or on their way into) middle management positions are encouraged
to apply. The Fund seeks to provide programme participants with insight and
inspiration that can help them advance into more senior management roles.
The Fund’s career programme builds upon Danish expertise in:

   - water and environmental management and its international applications
   - organisational management in the water sector


The Fund supports short capacity building visits to Denmark. The visits
will include a combination of formal training and “hands-on” interaction
with managers in public authorities and in the water industry. The Fund
will cover all travel, accommodation and living costs. It is the intention
that the Fund will maintain longer duration contact with the participants.

The capacity building visits include:

   - short courses in career development and management in the water
   sector, and in water governance, water resources, and environmental
   technologies. The courses will also consist of meetings with and visits to
   Danish organisations in the field of water
   - a one-week internship with an organisation in one of the above fields
   - a subsequent mentoring component. A senior Danish manager will serve
   as a mentor for each candidate. This mentoring will continue for at least a
   year after the visit to Denmark. Candidates must fully commit themselves to
   participating in this component of the programme


This year’s programme includes a two-week training and management
internship in Denmark from 14 to 29 September 2013. See the outline of the
programme at *
