Potential of productive waste management systems in low- income countries

• In low- and middle-income countries, often neither waste nor wastewater are fully collected and treated, resulting in major impacts on the environment and health. Urban and peri-urban agriculture provides both food and income to many urban poor, but productivity of land is decreasing. Tackling these problems simultaneously enables solutions for both issues by introducing systems where organic waste is turned into high-value products and safe fertilisers.
