CURSO DE CAPACITAÇÃO EM GESTÃO E PRESERVAÇÃO DE RECURSOS HÍDRICOS NAS BACIAS HIDROGRÁFICAS DO SUL DO PIAUÍ

Abstract

The training course on water resources for municipal environmental agents in the southern Piauí basin was developed to address the urgent need for specialized professional training in water management and preservation. Given the scenario of water scarcity and increasing pressure on natural resources, the course aims to train technicians, managers, and environmental educators to tackle specific challenges in the region, such as siltation, sewage contamination, and the destruction of riparian forests. With a workload of 60 hours, divided between remote theoretical modules and practical field activities, the course combines theory and practice, covering topics such as environmental legislation, water quality monitoring, and preservation techniques. Taught by specialists, the course promotes the application of acquired knowledge directly to local realities, strengthening the sustainable management of water resources. In addition to training professionals, the course acts as a knowledge multiplier, engaging communities and aligning with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 6, which aims to ensure the availability and sustainable management of water. This initiative is essential to promote water security, environmental sustainability, and community well-being, contributing to a more balanced and sustainable future.
