Page title: International Training Centre for Environmental Research
Environmental sciences is studying ecological processes over extended temporal and spatial scales. The International Training Centre for Environmental Research (ITCER) in Western Kenya provides a local logistic infrastructure for regional, national and international professionals and projects working in this area. The facility keeps rooms for seminars, a biological laboratory and an area of 1 ha for sustainable long-term field experiments. Informatics expertise and software services are another focus.
The services are useful for studies ranging from climate change and ecological research until long-term monitoring projects related to biodiversity studies, nature conservation and citizen science. ITCER the requirements objectives of universities, academic organisations as well as governmental environmental agencies in the uniiversity and relies on the self-organisation of persons and organisations
It is built as the result of self-organisation of persons *** The International Training Centre for Environmental Research is a training station for environmental sciences founded in xx and also a research station for . privat sector
