Author

AbstractLimited water resources on many islands are highly vulnerable to over-exploitation and pollution, and are affected by climate change and variability. Island physical environments, together with isolation and remoteness, and a range of socio-cultural traditions, all combine to present many challenges to good governance for sustainable water management. This paper outlines the need for an integrated water resources management training programme in the Pacific, and presents an overview of the curriculum. Challenges faced in delivering the programme in a flexible and multi-modal format to students across the vast Oceania region are discussed.
