NEWAVE E-lecture Series
The NEWAVE e-Lecture Series on Water Governance Theoretical Perspectives is now available as an online program on The School of Water Governance (SWaG) platform. Originally hosted as a highly successful training event by the NEWAVE Innovative Training Network, this series offers participants a comprehensive introduction to the key theoretical frameworks and debates shaping water governance today. Designed to engage early-stage researchers (ESRs), students, water practitioners, and the wider public, the program presents thought-provoking discussions that challenge traditional perspectives on water management, politics, and governance.
Spanning 16 expert-led lectures, the program covers essential themes such as socio-hydrological interactions, political dynamics in water governance, and the integration of scientific knowledge into policy decisions. The lectures are accessible to anyone interested in water governance and offer the opportunity to deepen understanding, regardless of prior knowledge.
