• To assess the extent to which the programme objectives and management have been relevant in relation to the main problems and issues in the field of energy and to the objectives and priorities of Sida.
• To participate in a follow-up seminar with a group of 40 participants in the Management of Hydropower development and use programme, which took place in Kenya during the period October 3-7, 2011.

The programme has been carried out since 2007 by Vattenfall in cooperation with Sweco International and has involved a total of 136 participants from 31 different countries.
