4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

A1: Themes will be developed in on-line mode,.

The 2.5 credits of virtual teaching correspond, in this particular case, it is developed in the Platea teaching platform or similar (UJA) where the developed topics and the activities linked to it will be located in an active way, it will be carried out with the help of computer resources and it will have the teacher's support via videoconferences and chats.

A2: Students will carry out laboratory/computer room practices, consisting of pumping systems/irrigation networks/calculation of water needs/ visit irrigation instalation.

These practices will be face to face (0.5 credits of attendance)

Tutorials: In the individual tutorial, apart from those indicated for the general teaching of the teacher, the students will be available for any questions they consider.

In the collective tutorial, the general progress of the course will be analysed, as well as possible incidents, deficiencies if any, improvement actions and everything that is considered useful for the good progress of the subject and the students, and the achievement of the foreseen objectives.

Students with special educational needs should contact the Student Attention Service (Servicio de Atención y Ayudas al Estudiante) in order to receive the appropriate academic support

DETAILED INFORMATION

Goal 6: Clean water and sanitation. Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all.

It will especially be developed in the subject: 

6.4 By 2030, significantly increase the efficient use of water resources in all sectors and ensure the sustainability of freshwater abstraction and supply to address water scarcity and significantly reduce the number of people suffering from water scarcity.
6.5 By 2030, implement integrated water resources management at all levels, including through transboundary cooperation, as appropriate.

6.6 By 2020, protect and restore water-related ecosystems, including forests, mountains, wetlands, rivers, aquifers and lakes.
6.a By 2030, scale up international cooperation and capacity-building support to developing countries in water and sanitation activities and programmes, such as water harvesting, desalination, water efficiency, wastewater treatment, recycling and reuse technologies.
6.b Support and strengthen the participation of local communities in improving water and sanitation management.

Objective 12: Responsible consumption and production. Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns.
12.1 Implement the 10-Year Framework of Programmes on Sustainable Consumption and Production Patterns, with the participation of all countries and under the leadership of developed countries, taking into account the level of development and capacities of developing countries.
12.2 By 2030, achieve sustainable management and efficient use of natural resources.
12.3 By 2030, halve global per capita food waste at retail and consumer levels and reduce food losses in production and supply chains, including post-harvest losses.

12.4 By 2020, achieve the environmentally sound management of chemicals and all wastes throughout their life cycle, in accordance with agreed international frameworks, and significantly reduce their release to air, water and land in order to minimize their adverse effects on human health and the environment.
12.5 By 2030, significantly reduce waste generation through prevention, reduction, recycling and reuse activities.
12.6 Encourage businesses, especially large companies and transnational corporations, to adopt sustainable practices and incorporate sustainability information into their reporting cycle.
12.7 Promote sustainable public procurement practices, in accordance with national policies and priorities.
12.8 By 2030, ensure that people everywhere have the information and knowledge relevant to sustainable development and lifestyles in harmony with nature.

12.a Assist developing countries to strengthen their scientific and technological capacity to move towards more sustainable consumption and production patterns.
12.b Develop and implement tools to monitor sustainable development impacts, in order to achieve sustainable tourism that creates jobs and promotes local culture and products.
12.c Rationalise inefficient fossil fuel subsidies that encourage wasteful consumption by removing market distortions, in accordance with national circumstances, including by restructuring tax systems and phasing out harmful subsidies, where they exist, to reflect their environmental impact, taking fully into account the specific needs and conditions of developing countries and minimising potential adverse effects on their development, in a manner that protects the poor and affected communities.
