Training as an instrument of sustainability
One increasingly important service offered by the Institute, alongside research and consulting, is training and further training. In addition to the traditional tracer courses held in Graz every two years for young hydrologists from developing countries, the Institute now also offers regular courses dealing with isotope hydrology. In order to ensure the sustainability of the know-how transfer above all in Third World countries, and to offer the local populations useful tools for autonomous, optimum use of their water resources, the Institute also offers follow-up courses to accompany the projects. Individual training courses at the Institute in Graz go to round off these training services.
