Rwanda Water Resources staff attended a training organized by Nile Basin Initiative as party of the project: Enhancing Conjunctive Management of Surface and Groundwater Resources in Selected Transboundary Aquifers: Case Study for Selected Shared Groundwater Bodies in the Nile Basin.

This three days training, which took place from 18th to 20th September 2023, was held in conducting the project’s Component 4: Further strengthening Capacity.

 Nile Basin Initiative installed and trained Rwanda Water Resources Board (RWB) staff on the groundwater models developed by the SADA consultants, from 9th September to 10th of October 2023.

The Objective of this training was to install geo-equipment and give to national experts in groundwater the capacity to use groundwater mudflow to model the groundwater.

“This training has been helpful for us, now we are capable to model different aquifers of our country.” Said Gilbert Niyidufasha, Ground Water Modelling Specialist at RWB.
