About

The International DAAD-Alumni Summer School - Sustainable Provision of Rural Renewable Energy with Focus on Financially Viable Solutions in Developing Countries is organised and hosted by the Center for Agriculture in the Tropics and Subtropics of the University of Hohenheim with financial support from the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).

The summer school is an opportunity to get together students, visiting scientists of German universities or former employees of German companies coming from developing countries to exchange knowledge and experience about current issues of rural energy provision in the participating countries.

The results of the Summer School consist of concrete energy concepts for rural “energy villages” which will be presented at the Agritechnica Trade Fair. A social and cultural program provides additional space for networking and discussions about future research cooperation.

The main topics of the summer school are:

  • Natural resource use, food security and poverty alleviation
  • Water resource management
  • Interdependencies of water, food and energy in the light of demographic developments
  • Crop production within the water cycle
  • Land use planning and modelling
  • Watershed management
  • Use of waste water
  • Resource efficient agricultural production
