In the upcoming April, National University of Laos (NUOL) will host an international event called “INOWASIA Workshop on Water Resources Management and Challenges in South East Asia” on 04th April 2023 at the conference room of Confucius Institutes.
The workshop is organized as a part of the 3rd Biannual Steering Committee Meeting of INOWASIA Erasmus+ project which will be held in the Lao PDR this year. Many related stakeholders of national and international levels and Higher Education Institutes in Southeast Asia are invited to participate to the event. The workshop has been designed to provide an overview about the water integrated managements covering (1) Water resource management, (2) Domestic wastewater management, (3) Water supply, (4) Soil health and biodiversity, Water quality, Natural Based Solution (NBS) for wastewater management.
The collaborative framework of Erasmus+ project INOWASIA contributes to improve not only the content of teaching, but also the transformation of traditional teaching method to modern competence based teaching, e.g. the integration of Problem Based Learning (PBL), and facilities to improve the quality of teaching-learning and R&D services, e.g. the Water-Oriented Living Labs (WOLLs). More importantly, the university-industry collaboration is one of core elements in the Erasmus+ CBHE projects to ensure the sustainability of the education programs after the end of projects through the Academic and Professional Committee (APC) from INOWASIA.
