Online learning

Over the next 30 years, it is estimated that 80% of the world’s population will live in areas with high levels of water scarcity. Our Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) developed with an interdisciplinary team of our affiliated researchers introduces learners to water security challenges and explains why human activity and environmental issues are putting increasing pressure on our water resources.
