with a view to gaining some wider insights into infrastructure /dispute settlement related matters, particularly on water bodies. These have been the subject of jurisdictional onflict within countries.I realise that the principles and process of settlement, preservation, development etc related to the international bodies could apply just as easily to such matters, if the individual country chooses to adopt them. My objectives were met. What may have been helpful is a slight detailing or summary of the individual cases cited throughout the course, maybe even as an optional read. Alternatively suggested additional reading urls (okay, I admit I can probably do this anyway and probably am being lazy about it!). The translations into English weren't a problem for me with transcripts being extremely useful to take the content at my own pace. Thanks to all faculty and the support staff who worked on this.

This was an extremely effective introductive course to the theory and application of International Water Law. The learning material was not too complex and avoided getting into intricate details of the cases and principles discussed. Accordingly, I believe makes the course is ideal for novices, though it could be argued that the lack of depth makes it not so appealing to those looking to gain an extensive understanding. The lectures are in French but there are English transcripts that are well translated - I do not know French well enough to solely rely on the lectures, so I just read these transcripts and treated them as reading exercises. Certain articles and legal texts are also provided, alongside additional reading suggestions.

The MOOC has very detailed information about the history and current development of International Water Law; the only thing I would say about it is that an academic video should have structured and organized information in a fluid and easy to perceive way, it is not a speech, it is a summarized class. This course does not have that and this complicates the task of absorbing information a bit.

Très bon cours. Cependant, les séquences sont souvent inégales. Si toutes sont équivalentes en terme de temps (de 8 à 12 minutes, plus ou moins), certaines sont bien plus denses en informations capitales que d'autres. Pour le reste, les enseignants sont clairs et les vidéos sont agréables à suivre.

Me pareció un curso muy completo pues daba tanto información como ejemplos que dejaban en claro como la ley internacional del agua ha evolucionado con los años. Sin embargo, debo mencionar que se debe mejorar en las traducciones de los videos.

very insightful course, but wouldve been better if it was at least english dubbed. So 5 stars the course along with the lecturers and 3 stars to the platform.
