| Venue | University Cheikh Anta Diop, Dakar (Senegal). |
| Context | In accordance with the guidelines of the Intergovernmental Hydrological Program (IHP) of UNESCO for the support of research capacities in hydrological sciences through education, the FRIEND-Water Global Conference Dakar’2023 offers 3 training courses in Hydrology & Environment: (1) Ecohydrological analysis of a territory and associated solutions, from the mapping of flows linked to runoff (IRIP): training in ecohydrology and the IRIP geomatics model for mapping the potential for intense runoff and testing of scenarios of ecohydrologically based mitigation (by Pascal Breil, INRAE; Makarius Lalika, SUA; Didier Orange, IRD); (2) Hydrometry : training in hydrological measurement in the field. (3) Early warning system (SAP): training in the knowledge of tools to develop warning systems in the context of the prevention of hydrological extremes in order to mitigate material, human or even economic damage from climate change. |
| Expected results | The skills that will be acquired at the end of this workshop can be popularized by integrating them into the courses given by teacher-researchers from the academic world as well as capacity building for development actors. |
| Origin of Participants | These training courses are open to all teacher-researchers, researchers, technicians and doctoral students using hydrological, climatological or environmental data. |
