Abstract

“Water Sector Governance and Operations – the Danish model” is a tailored continued education course targeting water sector professions from countries participating in the Danish Strategic Sector Cooperation Facility. Being the first country worldwide to establish an Environment Ministry in 1973, this course covers both the historical background, various environmental and technical aspects, as well as legislation, policies and regulatory tools including economics. Running the course equips researchers, teachers and mentors from all the involved institutions and companies with a new “lense” to better reflect on the needs of the water sector in the future, both internationally and in Denmark.
