Hi All,

I am currently teaching a course (GEOG391: Introduction to Global WASH for Development) at the University of Victoria, Canada. It has been offered by the Department of Geography for Spring 2017 (Jan-April). This course has been designed based on my own real field experience around the world. I brief description of the course can be found on onlineacademiccommunity.uvic.ca/geog391/

It could be interesting to develop the capacity of North American Students on Global WASH, so that they could work together with global communities for overall WASH improvement.

Thanks a lot

Nazim

Hi Cecilia

Hello,
Just to add to the previous listing...

At North Carolina State University, we had a course on Water and Sanitation for Developing Regions in Fall 2011 (CE 497/596). The course will be offered again as CE 397 in Spring 2014. However, it is an on-campus class (you have to be on campus to take it). Hopefully in a few years, it can be offered as a distance class (can be accessed remotely).

i am interesting to have a sound knowledge about WATSAN,

Cecelia:
Colleges and universities will often deal with WATSAN in courses that bear titles involving Global Health. One such course at Providence College taught by a colleague in Global Studies has a major unit on water and sanitation. I recently did a session on the work of toilet group in the department of Engineering-Physics-Systems at PC in WATSAN. You might have to enlarge the search terms to find courses dealing with WATSAN. Thanks for the post.
