Please feel free to introduce yourself in the chat or unmute yourself and say hi. OK. We waited just 30 more seconds. Hi, hi. Hi, everybody. I hope everybody's fine. We are, we are. So nice to see you all. OK, so. Looking at the time, I think we can, we can start. If you hear some heckos because Isabelle and I are sitting next to each other. So you can hear some echo, but as I was saying, feel free to introduce yourself in the chat or say hi online. This is the special get together that we are doing to talk about that you mute action for SDG six fellowship. My name is Samuela Guida and I am the IWA strategy program and engagement manager. And I'm here with my colleague Isabella who will introduce herself. So Isabella will be the main chair during the this, this meeting. So without further ado, Isabella, the floor is yours. And again, thank you all for, for joining and ask as many questions as you can. Because the deadline is approaching and we need all of you to apply. Isabella, the floor is yours. Thank you, Samuela. Oh, I'm glad to see so many familiar faces, but also the new faces. And I'm also happy to see that everyone is interested in this fellowship that IWA and ground froze. Launched. And so before I started just a quick introductions. Introduction from my side. My name is Isabella Spindler and I am the membership engagement officer responsible for the young water professionals. And I'm also taking the lead on this initiative. So if you have any questions, you can start like dropping them in the chat. We'll have a Q&A for this. But you can also send me an email and I will reply as soon as possible. So without further delay, I will just go over a quick presentation about the fellowship. And I already have some answers to some of the questions that I've been receiving. That it might be one of your questions. And then we will open this online floor. To your questions and other comments. I will just kindly ask that while I am presenting that you remember to mute yourself. So we don't have any kind of flabbin with different audios at the same time. Okay. So let me start. So you already know our faces. So for those that are not yet familiar with the fellowship, you can just scan their QR code and you can see the information that we have online. And also there's a link to apply for the fellowship. It's all in IWA website. But okay, so what is the IWA in Grand Falls Youth Action for HDG-6? What is this fellowship about? First of all, it's a fully funded opportunity that we launched it in partnership with Grand Falls. And we'll cover the air travel, subsistence, accommodation, ground transportation, all travel insurance and the visa application for those that need the visa. IWA, we are responsible for booking our airline tickets. So as soon as we have the selection list with the candidates, we will start working on this as soon as they receive their visa. And we highlighted in the application that the selected candidates, the candidates, they are responsible for securing the visa for UAS, Wanda and the Shen visa to go to Denmark. So what this fully funded opportunity will cover, we'll include it. First is the participation in the UN 2023 water conference that will be held in New York from 2022 to 2024. This conference is one of the most important events in the water sector. And we'll have an open ceremony, closing session, a lot of interactive dialogues, side events, plenary sessions. And during the same week in New York, New York City will be hosting the New York City Water Week. So both events will be happening at the same time. So the participation in the UN water conference, all the participants are going to contribute to a joint IWA grant for publication. And this publication is related to young water professionals. So we have this general team about how young water professionals have a critical role in the water sector. So we have this general team in the 2030 sustainable development goals. And we want you to understand we have the general team and we are asking the candidates what kind of contribution can we bring to this publication. So it will focus on how the water sector can maximize all the benefits of the water sector. And we are also thinking about the sustainable development, the SDGs and the 2030 agenda. Besides this, we have some online training sessions related to the current challenges to achieving the SDGs. All the sections will be online. The dates will be confirmed, and we need them to happen prior to the UN water conference. So thinking about dates, we need times between January and February. And then we have this three-day meeting at the Grand Falls headquarters in Denmark. It will be another in-person experience there. And during this event, all the candidates are going to present the key learnings from the UN water conference and also to start presenting their contributions to the publication. This date is yet to be defined, but it will happen after March 2023 after the UN water conference. Then the participants will also help with a webinar series with IWA and a global coordination call. This date is yet to be defined. Both of the events that I mentioned, they are online. And they will also share the key learnings, what was decided during the UN water conference, what they learned about it, in terms of the expectation. One of the main opportunities for them to engage with the YWP community and the wider IWA membership. And they will be able to share their experience with the others that were not able to be there and to attend. So it's a learning opportunity for those that were not attending the UN water conference, but also an opportunity for the selected candidates to share their perception about what happened there. Finally, all the selected candidates, they will attend the IWA water development congress in Kigali next year, where they will also highlight their key learnings via a workshop that will be held by the YWP secretary yet in collaboration with ground folks and the YWP steering committee, that by the way, we do have members here attending. And during the water development congress, we will also have a session, a side event that will launch this publication, this handbook between IWA and ground folks and all the contributions from the selected candidates. So what are the criteria to apply for the fellowship? First, should be a young water professional. So we will only consider applications from candidates that are between 18 to 35 years old on the date of the UN water conference. So the conference will start on the 22 of March next year. And this opportunity is open only for active IWA members. So we will be checking the membership status of all the candidates. If you are not a member, you are not eligible to participate. And what we are expecting from the candidates is that they show this commitment to the water sector, that they have leadership capacity, that they are working to address these key local or global issues related to water in their current work, if they are researching about it, if they are working on utilizing the industry in an NGO, for example. And we expect them to have this record of generating impactful and creating innovative ideas to the water sector. And since all the discussions in the UN water conference, as well as in Grand Falls, the publication and in Kigali will be in English, we are looking for candidates that have this working knowledge of English. So regarding the application, we are looking at the documents that you must submit to apply for the fellowship. First is your CV, only two pages. If you submitted five, we are not looking at the other three, we are only looking at the first two pages. We are looking to receive this motivation letter, maximum one page. We are asking for a letter to be submitted in one letter. So if you are an IWA member, you can get to connect to other members via the IWA Connect platform, via the specialist groups that we have, the other program. If you are involved with all the activities that IWA has, this is something easy to get in. Then we are asking for a letter to be submitted in one letter. So we are looking at the first two pages, we are looking at the second page, writing sample, because we need to check your knowledge of English, as well your knowledge of the water sector. And this writing sample should be related to the topic that the candidate wants to contribute to the publication. And finally, the application. All the documents must be submitted in English. They should be compiled and saved in a single PDF file. So this is the only file that you need to attach to the application form. In terms of the application process, the application will close this week on the 25, so Friday. I will be reviewing with the other members from the IWA secretariat until the 28th of November. The the interviews will be happening on the 29th and 30th of November. The candidates, the selected ones will be notified by mid-December. And the ones that are selected, they must confirm their participation by 20th of December. And we are receiving a lot of applications so we are not able to provide any individual feedback for the applicants. If you are not selected, we will be informing you. So I will start the Q&A with some of the questions that we received and as soon as I finish this, I will open the floor to receive your questions. So I am below 18 years old or over 35 years old. Can I apply to the fellowship? No, you cannot apply. This fellowship is open only for young water professionals between 18 years old and 35 years old on the date of the UN water conference. I am not an IWA member. Do I need to be a member of IWA to participate in the fellowship? Yes. You do need to be an IWA member. You can register online. I will share the link here but you can also find all the information related to how to become an IWA member with our website. If you are an IWA member, can you write your own reference letter? No. Self-written reference letter will not be accepted in this fellowship. And if you don't know any IWA members, how can you reach out to them? As I mentioned before, you can connect to them via the IWA Connect platform and you can reach out to specialist groups and the participants that are having some of our programs and other activities. And we are receiving a lot of requests to issue reference letter. But the IWA secretary is not issuing any reference letter. We are involved with the selection process so we cannot issue any reference letter. So why should you submit your motivation letter? Wow. It's via your motivation letter that you can show evidence that you are committed to deliver this positive change in the water sector. It's how you can demonstrate that you have this leadership capacity that we are looking for is where you can explain and demonstrate how you are addressing the key and global water issues in your current work. It's also where you can show that you have a track record of generating these impacts in the water sector. So use your motivation letter to highlight why you must participate in the water sector why you are a good candidate to attend it. Other questions that we received my CV is bigger than two pages, can I send it? As I mentioned, we will only accept CVs with two pages so you don't need to attach your degree certificates on it. You just need to highlight the main information in your CV. If you are not fluent in English can I apply to the fellowship? As I also mentioned before all the applicants are required to have this working knowledge of English. All the discussions during the UN water conference and all the other events and this online engagement will be in English and we will also evaluate this language fluent during the interviews. And if you are not fluent this fellowship is not something that you should consider. We really need someone that have this working knowledge of English. Regarding the writing sample again focus the writing sample on the water topic that you want to contribute to the publication. A sample will help us to evaluate your knowledge about the water sector, your writing skills in your knowledge and comment of the English language. And regarding your project proposal it should include a title a brief description about the project the objectives, the methodology and the scope. If you have some questions in terms of what you should include in the writing sample think about exactly how you can connect it and there are no available funds for development for developing the project, your project proposal and again it should be designed to fit the publication scope that you have it. If you need a visa to travel to the U.S. Denmark and Hwanda we are recommending that all applicants that they check the U.S. Denmark and Hwanda visa requirements via their local embassy IWA and ground falls we are not responsible for checking visa requirements and we cannot guarantee that any candidate that they will receive their visa will be selected and a maximum of two young water professionals will be selected per vision so two from Africa two from Asia, Europe, Latin American, Caribbean, North American and Oceania and the selection will also ensure that at least six participants are coming from low income countries and that is why we are recommending that all applicants are women finally what kind of profile we are looking for this fellowship we are looking for young water professionals that have leadership capacity they are addressing global and local water issues that have the knowledge of English and in the future I will share my screen so I can see all your faces and then we can go over to the questions that you have let me stop sharing Isabella thank you first of all I think you should show this last slide that you had with the discount because I am receiving some private messages asking how do I become a member I am so interested in this just follow these slides we have a discount for new members use this IWA YWP 2022 the link to become a member I will just put it in the chat how to join membership okay that answers some of the questions that I have received I also notice a question about I am a new IWA member can I apply as long as you have an active membership you are eligible for this fellowship Isabella what do you prefer we just go through the questions and we just reply to them or if you guys want to unmute yourself and just ask your question here just put your hands up and then I will follow here you can open your mic okay we have one did I pronounce her name right sorry it's lackas or I just have to find the unmute button I am used to teams thank you for the presentation I am a little bit confused about the application and doing this project proposal is it supposed to be like a project you are already working on or is it something that you could see could be eligible in the future if you could elaborate on that okay so regarding the funding we received some questions if there is any kind of funding available to develop this project proposal this project proposal is related to the publication so it's not a scientific experiment that you are carrying out in your lab or something like this so there is no funds available for this and this project proposal should be related to the publication so think about a chapter for a book what kind of contribution can we do to it thinking about the team that we have that is young water professionals contribution to the water sector okay thank you and the next one that I have here is Karina hi Isabella thank you so much I also wrote my question in the chat but I am currently living in Armenia but the United Nations recognizes it as Europe so I am wondering if I should select my region as Europe for the application process Karina we also received questions regarding this and think about the country that you are coming from especially related to the past support and the visa application process so inform where you are from based on this because it will also influence the process of the visa application it is also one of the ways that we will be checking if you are coming from a low income low or middle income country and then it will influence the selection okay I am a United States citizen I am here in Armenia for a research project so I read that it's about your current country of residence and my project is about I am here regionally in Armenia your project can be based on what you want to focus and contribute to the publication can be related to the country that you are living or facing but in terms where you are from go back to the country that you are for example I am from Brazil but I am living in the UK if I am applying for this fellowship I would say I am from Brazil okay thank you Mikhail Mikhail Brick since Mikhail is not I think his image is frozen let's go to Safila your audio is I cannot hear you yes regarding my research my topic which I propose in my proposal it is the middle of the way right now and so during this three month period we must conclude our research topic or else the IWO will recommend further any topics to focus on based on my specialist instead of saying what the young water professionals must contributed just giving the general theme that is related to young water professionals impacts in the water sector that I mentioned about and then we want to hear from you we are giving the young water professional space for them to show how they can engage in the water sector what kind of contributions that they can do so first we want to hear what you can contribute to it sorry so exactly which I propose in my application it is not the 100% topic will focus in my research it may change the publication will be related to young water professionals in the water sector and their contribution to achieving the sustainable development goals if your contribution is not related to this then you can still have time to change it but it should be related to the general theme but during this couple of months the research topic and finding should be finalized if I select your chapter your contribution must be ready until we have the launch in Grampus this will be after the IWO so after March and then it will also be launched during the Kigali during the World Development Congress so in terms of a time frame you have less than six months to finish okay thank you Sitao Hi Isabella I would like to ask you about country of residence and country of origin the application clearly says that the high income country low income country qualifications based on country of residence not based on country of origin so I was hoping you can clarify that a little bit so on the application like how it works because we are using the classification that we go with IWA right for example Sitao I don't remember where you are from but I know that you are based in Geneva in Switzerland right but then do you have where is your passport from from a couple of countries I suggest that you go with the country that you are from more than Denny Hi, yes it's more than Denny I just wanted to confirm I'm not sure it probably it has been covered before but yeah I can't even put on my video because I'm driving so in terms of the research topic is it the proposal or it can be something that already we are working on at the moment Marina can you please repeat the last part of the research should it still be a proposal or we can also submit something that we are already working on at the moment if you are working with something that is related to the topic of the publication then yes you can submit it and Joma yes hello all thank you for this good presentation well for me I'm a new member I've always tried to find someone to support me since I'm a new member in the Iowa so the problem that I found that no one knows me so how do those people like could support me or maybe recommend me since we don't collaborate like previously together so I think these conditions for new members like me should be like not take it on consideration like I know it's like I don't provide a letter of support I'm not eligible anymore to submit so what should they do I do my best anyone here like could to connect with me or maybe do the support for me all the papers are really the proposal the motivation later in my CV all the papers are already with this so I can submit right now but the only issue I found is support later in the network platform so I'm still waiting a positive response so what should they do in my case thank you for your question and I know that some of the the YWPs they are struggling with this letter of reference but this is a mandatory part of the application process so we are not creating like a special case for new members so I'm just going to share your application for submitting the reference letter and Isabella sorry if I can add just something quickly what you can do is that you can reach out to us to Isabella and myself and what we can do we can put you in contact with people you can maybe share with us your CV and some of the other documents that the application requires so that these people that we put you in contact with can know you on those terms so if you share a CV maybe what you are doing how would you like to contribute to the publication why are you interested in attending the conference maybe these people can support you in those so even if they don't know you personally what you are doing in going to New York next year and we also have over 50 specialist group and then you can always reach to one of them that are connected to your working experience your background and then you can present yourself to this specialist group sharing your CV and saying like I need a reference letter to apply for this and you can find all the information about the SGS in the IdaBray website and you can connect with them via the IdaBray Connect platform Isabella there is a question about can you be an applicant but also write a reference letter for someone else self reference letter no but you can apply for someone else yes you can apply yes so I can apply but also write a reference letter for someone else yes Sina? can one member of IdaBray write more than one recommendation no they can write more than one reference letter it's okay they can yes they can but for applicants we can just one reference letter per candidate but if I am an IdaBray member I want to write ten reference letter for ten applicants I can Grace? Hi thanks for setting this up today I am still a little bit confused about the project proposal I've read the description on the website many times so I understand what it says but as we're actually writing it so the idea is that we're coming up with a way to integrate young professionals into the water sector and are we actually following through with our proposal over the course of these couple of months or is it just a concept that we're putting out there? If you follow your proposal that would be amazing on this and Grace you can for example discuss how the young water professions are being integrated in your region as a specific role for young water professional if it's being successful if there you can discuss legislation or policies in places or you can discuss how young water researchers are contributing to the development of new policies think about the science and policy integration there are huge there are a lot of topics that you can connect to this general topic the general team that we have it's up to you to say and to highlight why this is important why this should be part of this publication and why you should also be part of this delegation Okay I think that helps thank you so much and Karina do you have another question? I do I just want to apologize I just want to clarify I was looking at the Google form when it comes to the classification and it says that HIC or LIC classification is based on the country of residence and not the country of origin but when it pertains to submitting that application it's based on our country of origin in the title I just want to clarify that that's in fact the case so the classification is based on where I'm currently residing but when I submitted I write where I'm originally from Yes exactly I will add this information online so maybe other candidates are facing the same situation I just wanted to clarify thank you so much I'm sorry I just want to make sure that I'm making sense of my question and following on from what Grace said I was also struggling to kind of understand whether or not this is the hypothetical or what I guess the research topic or project looks like I guess I'm just looking for a little bit more clarification on the difference between the project sorry the proposal is a writing sample so in my head like the proposal is kind of like an abstract where you kind of have steps through the steps that you would go whether it's something that's already happened or something that's happening in the future and then the writing sample is like a part of the report is that the idea and then if it's something that I haven't done yet am I then making kind of assumptions in the writing like in my writing sample so Matt in your project proposal you need to bring the title a brief description about the project your objectives the methodology and the scope this is your project proposal and then in the writing sample you can bring the information about how your contribution are connected to the team highlighting your knowledge in the water sector highlighting also how this contribution is important for this general team about young water professionals one of them is the project proposal so we have specific things that we are asking for in the writing sample you can be a little more broad in it awesome thank you Grace do you have another question because your hands are still up no sorry let me figure out how to lower it and Joe Matt this is the same situation for you because your hands yeah yeah yeah I can say situation thank you so now we have Ike sorry I'm totally mispronounced your name can you hand me now yes okay sorry I got my time wrong because you know the time difference I'm kind of lucky to join this time so my question here is that because I was just going to participate and I come to realize that most people from Africa they participate in programs like this you know it's quite challenging it's very very challenging so it's quite difficult for me get the registration because there's no one there to guide opening up to my processing school and they're like they don't know much about Iowa they don't belong to Iowa and it just me on my registration I'm thankful at this very point I've gotten you know I made my payment today too so my question here is that I've arrived to so many in the W as the young water professional group I wrote to them regarding a question for a recommendation later and most of them are like I don't know you I mean I can't write a recommendation and one you know you can't relate to so actually on my own side I have the friend challenge now is getting a recommendation later so I don't know that's why I'm kind of I decided to join this very meeting to know how that could be helped and aside me and other faculty students who wants to be part of this program thank you for a question we had a similar one like before and we suggested the connection via either way connect and reaching out to the specialist group and what Samuel suggested is that you send them your CV to us and then we can reach out to some of the members and try to put in contact to them to try to facilitate you in this reference letter you're muted so the next question here is like currently I have problems with my bank already I have to make the payments in euros and here I'm having kind of some difficulty making payments in euros regarding local banks here in Nigeria so I wrote to the bank and I was able to get the payment instead of euros and I can't really make the payment I think that was my challenge today this morning when I went to the bank to make the payment they were like oh you have to make this very payment in euros but all they have is dollars so I don't know if there's any you know is there any way for me to pay the dollars equivalent of the euros they sent me a link to make the payment in dollars that they can make such payments so I don't know if I can be helping this okay so can you send me an email with your information and then we'll put you in contact with the membership team and they can help you in terms of how to proceed in paying the membership fee okay thank you so so how yes can you hear me yes perfect thank you Isabella and Simra for this talk what I can see and read from the comments in the chat here is that a lot of us are struggling with that recommendation letter and given that we have three days until submission and you also mentioned something about a possible extension I just want to highlight or at least provide my own thoughts on this selection process you will be losing out on a lot of great talent if you continue with this recommendation letter now I can see a lot of people are nodding their heads you will be losing out on talent and I'm not sure that is the purpose of this particular call from Kornfos so I urge you to please go and talk to your manager administrator that is in charge of this Kornfos and tell them to scrap the recommendation letter and extend the deadline please Isabella do you mind if I give just a short result here I'm really sorry it's just because I can't raise to this issue as well and it's simply because so the first advice that I would give to those that are the first time being members first is welcome like it's really nice to have an extended family and this is a network that all the time is looking out for the young people and it's so great that more people can be integrated into the network so that we can help each other the second thing would be to advise you to talk with local chapters so if you have a young work professional chapter locally in your country then try to reach out to them and understand if they have contacts with IWM members plus they will be probably IWM members because young work professional chapters must have IWM members in their boards so if you reach out to them maybe they will be able to reference you because maybe you already know them right so that's one advice that I would give the other one is that we cannot be short-sighted this is one funding proposal that we have of many that will come hopefully right this is one so the fastest that you're trying to be a member and get integrated into the system the more the opportunities you will be able to get hopefully from group as well I mean we've been developing this of course for a while and the commitment here is really to youth it's not a single commitment this is a long-term situation this is not a one-time thing maybe from GUNFOS is this but I'm sure that GUNFOS also has the perspective of continuing the support and the partnership with IWM this is my understanding from the partnership that we've been developing with them so I'm saying this because it's a great opportunity really a unique moment let's not fool ourselves the water crisis will not be solved in March 2023 and the opportunities for us to do something and get involved will also come so just be a bit patient and reach out to the local chapters honestly that's something that you can do today thank you Ines we have more than 35 chapters all over the world so it's just a matter of reaching out in a country and you're not sure if there is a chapter or not you can send me an email and I can put it in contact with the chair of this this reference letter is one of the mandatory things that we have in the selection process and we are currently not dropping this out in the last minute on this regarding the extension of the deadline we are still working with the 25th of November so this Friday we will be in terms of the time of this application is more we had more than 20 days to prepare all the things and for those that were present in Copenhagen we announced this fellowship there so they are already aware of it we promoted it online and when we open we disseminated it as soon as possible to not only IWA members, YWPs that are already part of the organization but also to others in terms of the and as Ines mentioned there are other organizations that are preparing activities to engage young water professionals this UN water conference will be something that the water community can look forward and you can see a lot of organizations and youth water organizations working towards engaging YWPs as much as possible in all the activities there Hi Linda Good to see you and I just wanted to mention to Ralph's point so the application has been open for more than 20 days so the IWA has put a lot of effort to advertising on various social media platforms so even though the info session was only held today but many of us have been tracking this opportunity and I think it is at this point I do suggest that we keep the recommendation letter just so that it's fair to those who have been putting the effort for the past 20 days preparing the letter and then I do have another question what about this letter does it have to go on a specific format or letter head knowing that there is no format to follow it just has to come from an IWA member and they has to be one page no more than one page what about any spacing requirement just standard 1.5 or no no of course not but if you put the spacing you will notice Thank you so much for the clarification Thank you Linda Hello I have a question on behalf of one of my colleagues who situated in India she unfortunately couldn't be here today but she was a little bit concerned that she wouldn't have time to apply for the visa coming from India to the US I didn't know if you knew anything about it but I think we can go on to that process like we are aware of the situation with the visa we are currently discussing with other organizations and also to the organizers of the conference if they recreate some kind of a special channel but so far there's no nails in terms of this and this is something that we don't have control of in terms so yeah Thank you for elaborating on that Any other questions if you have questions just please put your hands up so I can find you Hi Gina Hello I just wanted to know that I'm turning 35 and 21 days so I must not be eligible eligible right I'm crossing by 20 days I think we talked about it before we will consider the year not the date I mean for IWM membership this is what we do but maybe Isabella you have a different information but what I understood is that we will consider the year of being born not the date If you are 35 years until the UN water conference then you are eligible to apply if you are over 35 if you are 36 during the UN water conference then you are not eligible to apply So I'm not 36 I'll be just my date of birth is 1st March so I'll be 35 years 20 days or 21 days If you are 35 years by the time of the UN water conference Thank you I have received many many questions like this so I think what we usually do in IWA is consider the year of birth so if your year covers the 2023 you are 35 then that's okay even if you are 35 one day two days three days Jane Okay thanks so much Thank you for sharing this kind of innovative presentation I also newly became the IWA members and tried to apply it but it's so far I could not get to some different centers even though I created some favorites and the plans and some of the materials I prepared but it seems like it's hard to do that I could not find the even to my countries I could not find the person who can write to some different centers so that's what I came to hear I'd like to ask you about so here is a kind of a couple for the 2023 and 2024 so is there going to be the next year I'll start with you Jane you are based in Japan right Yes We have a chapter there we have a chapter in Japan so I can put you in contact with them and they can facilitate in the sense the last part of your question I could not understand because the audio was dropping so if you could please repeat it I mean this year they open up to the fellowships and I'd like to know how about the next year can you open up to the next years as the same fellowship programs The UN War conference will be next year so this fellowship is just for the next year there should be no discussions in terms of future fellowships for the young water professionals but here in IWA we are trying as much as possible to include young water professionals to create opportunities for them but so far for next year what we have is this fellowship for the UN War conference okay okay fine yeah it's very low can you hear me yes so the question I have here is that I recently reached out to a former member from Nigeria who is a member so he was asking me that he can recall his date of registration when I read on LinkedIn one of the posts it says that one of the implications of the active member implies that you have to pay your membership fee for the year so he was not like for the past 12 months he doesn't know if the membership last time was within the past 12 months but I just want to hear from you if you pay for December 2021 then it means that till date you're still within the range you have to make another fresh payment or kind of renew your membership if he doesn't have an active IWA membership then he's not an IWA member and he's not able to write your reference letter yes thank you one more time for answering the questions I will come back to the research proposal it's like should we like submit kind of short and abstract because we submit for a journal to publish our article we need first to send them like a short and abstract it could be similar for the research proposal we should follow the the ideas that's already written there like we need to write the abstracts the objective the methodology and scope in the end I recommend that you follow what we stated in the call informing the title the title let me get it the abstract title a brief description of the project objective the methodology and scope okay okay any other questions because we are our time is up excuse me I'm just asking about Morocco is there is a chapter in Morocco not yet we are in discussions trying to reach out to members there to create a chapter but yet we don't have a chapter in Morocco so considering the time the session was recorded and I'm going to compile all the information I have here including the things that were discussed in the chat because I didn't follow it yet and then I will add everything to the website so we can watch it later and you can share it with your friends that were not able to attend it today and also go ahead thank you for joining thank you for all the questions and thank you for the interest in this IWA and Grenfels Fellowship and I'm looking forward
