CERTIFICATE PROGRAMME IN WATER HARVESTING MANAGEMENT

The Certificate programme of Water Harvesting and Management has been jointly developed in collaboration with School of Agriculture, as per the recent initiative of the University for offering Need Based Academic Programmes.

ABOUT THE PROGRAMME

Over the years with consistent increase in population, growing urbanization and industrialization, increasing demand for agriculture produce, has led to phenomenal increase in demand for water. This has also resulted in over exploitation of limited surface as well as ground water resources, and as a consequence constantly and continuously depleting ground water table. The situation in urban areas is even more serious. Accordingly, there is an urgent need for not only conservation of water resources but also its argumentation through effective strategies and management, particularly in view of ever rising demand of water from various competing sectors. Rainwater harvesting essentially means collection and storage of the rainwater from rooftop or from a surface catchments for future use. This takes care of the cities ever-growing requirement for water, increases soil moisture level thereby enhancing urban greenery, increase in the ground water table through artificial recharge and also improves of quality of ground water. Town planners and civic authorities all over the country have introduced bylaws for encouraging rainwater harvesting.

Despite various initiatives including legislative measures, very little rainfall is conserved and harvested. There is a tremendous possibility for harnessing the rainwater for augmenting the existing water resources. This calls for an immediate requirement of generating mass awareness and dissemination of skills through trained human resources, about rain water harvesting techniques and management for the optimal use of harvested water by all concerned. This programme would especially be useful for those living in water scarce and also drought prone areas.

Main Objectives

To sensitize and educate learners on augmentation & utilization of water resources.
To impart necessary skills and expertise to understand water harvesting techniques.
