The Train-Sea-Coast GPA is an active inter-agency collaboration between the UNESCO-IHE Institute for Water Education, the European Union ACP Water Facility, the UN Division for Ocean Affairs and the Law of the Seas (DOALOS),  the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the Global Environment Facility (GEF) and the United Nations Environment Programme - Global Programme of Action (UNEP/GPA).

We believe that empowering professionals at the local level is a fundamental component of sustainable development. Until Aug 2009 we trained over 1.800 experts from 67 countries in different world regions. We also trained 55 local, regional and international instructors.

Our collaborative effort in offering training to municipal wastewater managers aims at improving sanitary services and thus a cleaner and healthier environment that provides livelihoods for coastal populations.

You are invited to explore this partnership, refresh your knowledge in the management tutorial and the compendium of technologies or download documents, presentations and software tools in our library.

We are committed to deliver cost-effective and demand-driven training to municipalities in a growing number of countries, and thereby making a contribution to increase people's access to sanitation and to reduce the discharge of untreated wastewater into the environment.
