Episodes of flooding, droughts, and rapid urbanization increase exposure to waterborne diseases, vectors (mosquitoes, rodents), and air pollution, with major impacts on public health and the resilience of territories. Communities, water and sanitation operators, WASH NGOs, and consulting firms are seeking professionals capable of analyzing risks, deploying proven solutions on the ground, and organizing environmental health monitoring. This Professional Certificate in <strong>Environmental Health and Hygiene<\/strong> addresses this strategic demand by articulating environmental determinants of health, environmental hygiene, public sanitation, air quality, and vector control, in line with SDG 6 and climate resilience.<\/p>\n<p>The method <strong>UNIVGA<\/strong> offers a 100% online, asynchronous, and flexible format (5 to 8 hours\/week over 3 months), accessible 24\/7. You will work on real case studies of water\/sanitation\/climate projects in the African context (waterborne epidemics, urban flooding, sludge management, WASH in health facilities, ATPC), utilizing field procedures and tools: Water Safety Plans (WSP), Sanitation Safety Planning, WASH FIT, health inspections, sampling protocols, GIS, and mobile data collection. The course is rigorously aligned with the <strong>Environmental Health \/ WHO<\/strong> (standards, guidelines, DPSEEA and IVM frameworks), with continuous assessments, operational checklists, and pedagogical tutoring. You will emerge with an immediately actionable toolkit and a UNIVGA certificate guaranteeing the quality of your achievements.<\/p>\n<p>Upon completion of the training, you will be operational for roles such as water\/sanitation operations agent, WASH technician, environmental hygiene officer, sanitation inspector, vector control supervisor, or environmental health monitoring assistant. Your skills will make you immediately deployable by water companies, WASH NGOs, local authorities, consulting firms, environmental agencies, and climate-resilience projects. The <strong>Professional Certificate UNIVGA<\/strong> enhances your employability through practical skills: risk diagnosis, implementation of WASH interventions, health control, monitoring and evaluation, and risk communication. It constitutes a tangible asset for applying, advancing in responsibility, or launching local services (water, sludge management, sanitation), while contributing to the protection of public health and the sustainable achievement of SDG-related goals concerning water, sanitation, and climate.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Train in the fundamentals of WASH, sanitation, and environmental risks for operational positions in Africa.
