Wastewater Use for Vegetable Farming and Post-Harvest Health Risk Management in Ghana

This policy brief provides an overview of research conducted by SHARE-funded PhD student Prince Antwi-Agyei, and provides key recommendations to improve the WHO guidelines on the safe use of wastewater for urban agriculture. It also suggests how governments in low and middle income countries - in particular the Government of Ghana - could manage produce health risks arising from wastewater use and post-harvest practices at farms, markets, street vending sites and restaurants.
