The fund takes into consideration an integrated approach to water management that includes technical and/or sociological aspects. The internship will take place in a developing country and will be tied to a master’s thesis or a project from a master’s course worth at least 15 credits.

Applications are assessed based on five selection criteria. The first is Objective, where the internship must be linked to access to water or its management and be part of a final year project or a course worth at least 15 credits. The second is Pertinence, ensuring the work deals with important local issues. The third is Capabilities, ensuring the requested budget matches the candidate’s needs. The fourth is Originality, where the approach or framework chosen by the candidate is innovative. The fifth is Impact, where the work done during the internship brings real added value to the end-of-year thesis.
