Maintaining contact with our alumni and following them in their careers after their training at the UNEP GEMS/Water Capacity Development Centre is highly important to us. We do this so we can continue to support our graduates in any capacity we can, and of course to understand how their training impacts their careers in the long-term, but also so that we can make sure the training we provide for current students continues to be as topical and relevant as possible and delivered in the best possible way! To that end, and to give everyone a taste of what kind of projects that alumni of the CDC at UCC are working on, on this page you'll find some updates from our alumni.
