The wastewater podcasts, part 5: Southern Africa and South Asia

An interview with Sam Drabble (Head of Evaluation, Research and Learning at Water and Sanitation for the Urban Poor). Sam mentioned the exciting change in the discourse from viewing wastewater as a waste stream to viewing it as a resource. Wastewater can be reused as if it's treated effectively and then lead to tangible resources like fertilizers or energy when municipal wastewater can be converted to, for instance, biogas. And reclaimed wastewater can be used for many activities. In countries like Israel, 25 percent of their water is reclaimed wastewater; in Singapore, it is even 40 percent.

The wastewater podcasts, part 4: South and Southeast Asia

An interview with Hendra Gupta (manager of the Regenerative Sanitation Hub project, Asian Institute of Technology, Bangkok, Thailand). Hendra Gupta doesn't believe in one system catches-all approach. Much depends on the government's national, provincial and municipal commitment. For a large-scale treatment plant, it is essential to have support from the national government to secure the funding and the personnel capacity for planning and execution of the plans. Often a decentralized approach proves to be better, but sometimes outside pressure changes the preferred method. For instance, in tourist areas where the tourists expect not to see any trace of wastewater in the beach or nature areas they visit.

The wastewater podcasts, part 1: West Africa

An interview with Jerry Asumbere (EPA, Ghana). We focussed on data collection and monitoring, which is essential to measure progress and base policies on. Jerry has done a fantastic job in monitoring the wastewater situation in Ghana while working with limited resources. However, he struggled with getting the correct data on the quantities of wastewater and wastewater treated, and that's when a collaboration with UN-Habitat started.
