Learn from the top water resource academic experts in the world through this ASU Study Abroad initiative, while exploring the intersection of water, ecosystems and governance.
This program is a part of the PLuS Alliance, Connected River Basins with University of New South Wales, Sydney and Kings College London.
ASU students will be joining students and faculty from the two other universities as well as the University of Botswana to participate in an interdisciplinary course centered on water resource management.
