26 July 2021
Calling emerging water leaders
Clearwater and the International WaterCentre (IWC) are partnering to offer three partially funded scholarships; one for emerging Indigenous Water leaders, and two for emerging leaders from Metropolitan Melbourne to participate in the next intake of the IWC Water Leadership Program.
This award-winning professional development program helps emerging leaders develop the abilities they need to influence, drive change and advance integrated water management projects.
Designed for emerging water leaders at the project-to-middle management level, this 9 month program is customised for the water sector through sound research and collaboration with experienced industry practitioners and will assist organisations to deliver Water for Victoria.
Clearwater is providing two fully funded and one partially funded scholarships for Victorian applicants - one scholarship for emerging Indigenous water leaders (valued at $10,500) , and two scholarships for emerging water leaders from metropolitan Melbourne working for a local government, water authority or catchment management authority (one valued at $10,500 and one valued at $4,000).
Microcredential and digital badge offerings for the Water Leadership Program are now in place. For more information click on the below links:

Who should apply?
We are looking for emerging water leaders that are committed to their professional development and advancing IWM in Victoria. To support the adoption of IWM across Victoria, one full scholarship is reserved for an Indigenous Australian working for a local government, water authority or catchment management authority anywhere in Victoria, and the other full scholarship is reserved for emerging water leaders working for a local government, water authority or catchment management authority in metropolitan Melbourne.
