Despite an increasing interest in urban food supply and the flows of food from production to consumption, there is a lack of empirical s...


Karg, H.Drechsel, PayAkoto-Danso, Edmund K.Glaser, R.Nyarko, G.Buerkert, Andreas[Foodsheds and city region food systems in two West African cities]Foodsheds and city region food systems in two West African cities

Where wastewater is used without appropriate treatment, additional safety measures such as safer irrigation practices or careful vegetable washing are required to protect farmers and consumers. Implementing such food safety interventions in the informal farming sector is not easy, as they require...


Drechsel, PayKarg, H.[Motivating behaviour change for safe wastewater irrigation in urban and peri-urban Ghana]Motivating behaviour change for safe wastewater irrigation in urban and peri-urban Ghana

This chapter discusses the implementation challenges of the WHO Guidelines on safe wastewater use pertaining to the adoption of the so-called ?post-treatment? or ?non-treatment? options, like safer irrigation practices or appropriate vegetablewashing in kitchens. Due to limited risk awareness and...
