Abstract
INITIATE for PhD is a new platform aiming at strengthening the emergence of robust international, intercultural and interdisciplinary network of PhD candidates working on water related issues. It gathers PhD candidates and their mentors from 12 universities across the world, including three UNESCO International Centres (Delft, Dundee, Montpellier). The platform provides participating PhD candidates opportunities to exchange with PhD candidates from other universities, who are struggling with similar issues to develop interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary knowledge. Following the first Autumn school held in the University Mohammed 6 Polytechnique (Morocco), three working groups are active for the year 2024/2025. Applications for the second INITIATE cohort will be opening soon in 2025, which presents an opportunity for new PhD students from the University of Dundee to join the platform.
