H3PA-HESD PROGRAMME

Within its work plan, HEWACC will give priority to capacity building with HESD education and awareness- raising programmes, and to development of national and international collaborative, fieldbased research projects and professional training. It will evolve teaching courses, outreach activities and undertake research leading to publications.

As an institutional research-based initiative, HEWACC expects to play an important role for facilitating sustainable development at local, national and international levels by addressing sustainability through its core functions of education, research and outreach.

At the institutional level, HEWACC will help to realise aspects of sustainability within the university itself, implementing education, awareness-raising, and training modules in H3PAHESD programme. It’ll be promoting inter-university cooperation and networking to enhance institutional capacities through knowledge sharing and collaborative work. Field-based research projects will be promoting educational, socio-economic and cultural development at local, national, regional, global levels.
