in wastewater irrigated urban and peri-urban vegetable farming. In this project, assessment of land and water productivity in wastewater irrigated farming was done, levels of contamination
on irrigation water and vegetables quantified at different levels along the food chain (farms, markets and consumer level) and appropriate low-cost risk reduction strategies identified and
participatory testing done with stakeholders at farm and consumer levels. A large number of students were involved in the project, significantly building human capacity. CITATION CPWF PN
