Training on Aquatic Ecosystem Health Monitoring

A group of 12 trainees from all 4 ORASECOM Member States gathered at Parys Town along the Vaal River for a 4-day training course on aquatic ecosystem health monitoring. While the course material covered all aspects of monitoring the ecosystem health of rivers, backed up by practical experience in the field, it focussed on building the trainee’s competency in the mini South African Scoring System (SASS) methodology. The expert trainers provided a post-course evaluation – indicating that all the trainees were capable of providing reliable miniSASS results.
