Brief description of institution/organization
To
provide a focus for international cooperation in land and water research and
training in Turkey, the General Directorate of Rural Services has built a new
Center at Menemen near Izmir. The mission of the Center is to raise levels of
sustainable performance in land and water management and so meet client,
national and international goals. The objectives of the Center are to identify
the constraints to sustainable performance, develop and test appropriate
cost-effective responses to address the constraints and guide and accelerate the
learning of individuals so that they realize their potential.
The Center continues to identify land and water research and
training needs. In line with client demands the Centre and its partners are
further developing the Center's capacity to offer relevant programmes and
services.
The Center offers programmes and services that include
international collaborative research opportunities, short courses and study
tours, tailor-made programmes designed to meet the specific needs of individual
clients, international conferences, symposiums, seminars and
workshops. |
