The University of the Free State (UFS) is all about water footprints, as Cape Town continues struggling with severe drought. UFS recently conferred three degrees to academics involved in  water footprints for the Water Research Commission (WRC).

The university bestowed a master’s degree on Adetoso Adetoro and two PhD degrees on Dr Enoch Owusu-Sekyere and Dr Frikkie Maré. Their research was part of two projects initiated and funded by WRC to help find solutions to South Africa’s water scarcity challenge.
