The Rand Water Chair in Public Health is hosted by the Stellenbosch University Water Institute. The principle of this Chair is to implement diverse research projects in the field of drinking water related to human health risk assessment and epidemiology. Multiple environmental factors in water supply and distribution need to be monitored in order to minimize the chance of water becoming a thread to public health. In line with Rand Water's stated vision to stay at the forefront of water supply and further its international reputation, the aim is to go beyond standard monitoring to develop new strategies with Rand Water for the advancement of water research in service of society.
