Mott Macdonald's international development consultancy, Euroconsult Mott MacDonald, has been contracted to improve the quality of technical education offered by three schools and three training centres run by the Holding Company of Water and Waste Water (HCWW) in Egypt. The project is funded under the Netherlands Initiative for Capacity development in Higher Education (NICHE) programme, part of the Netherlands organisation for international cooperation in higher education (Nuffic). More skilled workers in the water supply and sanitation sector are needed to create a more sustainable and integrat- ed water management system in Egypt. The project aims to increase the supply of competent technicians, trained and educated by the technical vocational schools and HCWW training centres, and improve management capacity at the centres and schools. Mott MacDonald, together with partner Vitens-Evides International, NHL University of Applied Sciences, Capacity Building International (CBI) and Chemonics Egypt, will work with HCWW and the staff of the technical schools and company training centres to manage and implement the project.
