The German Alumni Water Network has been established to better
coordinate activities for former students of German Universities and
development associations in Germany. It is the
outcome of a joint effort of DAAD and six universities who offered
alumni summer schools in 2005 in coordination with IFAT 2005. It
provides contact information from and for DAAD Alumni and Alumnae
active in the the water sector online.
Registered users of the database have the opportunity for using
detailed search functions within the database to identify potential
collaborators, to locate former colleagues, and to establish new
links.
The
database is managed and organised at present by the
Universität Siegen on behalf of DAAD. Furthermore, a consortium of
ten German Universities co-operate for strengthening the German
Alumni Water Network GAWN by offering access to their existing alumni
networks and by organising summer schools and expert seminars in
different continents.
Interested German Universities are cordially invited to join the
German Alumni Water Network at any time convenient
