Seminar: Opportunities for mainstreaming resource recovery and reuse in developing countries
Presented by IWMI's Johannes Paul (Researcher, Integrated Waste Management) at a stakeholder meeting to inform about the ongoing BMZ funded research project on “Research and capacity-building for soil rehabilitation”, held at IWMI Headquarters, in Colombo, Sri Lanka, on June 21, 2016.
Presented by Presented by Jeremy Bird, Director General - IWMI, (on behalf of IWMI researcher Paul Pavelic) at the 8th Global Environment Facility (GEF) Biennial International Waters Conference (IWC-8) held in Negombo, Sri Lanka, on May 9-13, 2016.
Presented by IWMI's David Wiberg (Theme Leader – Water Futures) to a group of European Union (EU) delegations in Asia at a discussion on 'Using research on agriculture climate and water to support sustainable food systems', held at IWMI Headquarters in Colombo, Sri Lanka, on June 8, 2016.
The Challenge Program on Water and Food's Associate Director and researcher, Sophie Nguyen Khoa, demonstrates how the program's unusual approach in water-for-food research - which is using cross discliplinary teams and creating linkages between rural agricultural sectors such as fisheries, water, crops, ecosystems and health - contributes to real improvement in the livelihoods of the world's poorest communities.

We need a shift from our current paradigm of productivity enhancement while reducing environmental impacts, to a paradigm where sustainability constitutes the entry point for all agricultural development. Case studies include aphids for pest control in China and conservation agriculture in Colombia.

Kevin Litwiller - Director of Business Develoment for Lystek International presents the changing trends and landscape of wasterwater biosolids and residuals management. The key points made include:
1) We must view biosolids as a resource not waste
2) Agriculture 3.0 - a shift to small, family farms to much larger sophisticated operations - demands the nutrient rich, organic matter in biosolids be safely recycled to meet the needs of sustainability
3) Concerns about biosolids odours and pathogens are contributing to a shift toward advanced treatment/technologies - Class A Solutions

This session provides a comprehensive overview of the latest updates to the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (commonly known as the Uniform Guidance) outlined in the 2 CFR 200.
With a focus on the 2024 revisions issued by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), participants will gain insight into the key changes affecting federal grant recipients. The session will delve into critical regulatory updates, providing attendees with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate and comply with the evolving landscape of federal grant management.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the rationale behind the 2024 updates to the Uniform Guidance outlined in 2 CFR 200, and their implications for federal grant recipients.
- Identify the key changes and revisions introduced by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in the 2024 edition of 2 CFR 200.
- Gain proficiency in applying the updated regulations to ensure compliance with federal grant requirements and avoid potential audit findings.
- Develop strategies for effectively implementing the new guidelines within the grant management processes of their respective organizations, fostering efficiency and accountability in federal grant administration.
Opportunities for mainstreaming resource recovery and reuse in developing countries

4. • Every year, one third of the world’s food goes to
waste along with the valuable nutrients it
contains.
• If food waste were a nation, it would rank as the
third-largest greenhouse gas emitter after the
US and China.
• 250 km3 of water is used to produce this wasted
food, equivalent to the annual water discharge of
the Volga River.
• The estimated value of global food waste is $1
trillion annually!
5. • RRR is one of the options to reduce
the environmental burden and recover
value from what is otherwise lost.
• The same applies to wastewater
reuse and resource recovery from
fecal sludge.
6. Water for a food-secure worldWater for a food-secure world
• But how do we achieve RRR at scale if we are
still struggling with getting treatment plants to
work?
• Across the developing world, only 10% of waste
water gets treated;
• In India alone, more than 100 m septic tanks
and pit latrines have no treatment plant to
receive the fecal matter.
13. Why do we not see more of this
and at scale?
• Most initiatives aimed at RRR have been
characterized in low-income countries by:
- High dependence on subsidies;
- Limited up-scaling potential.
• Fundamental gaps in:
- Business planning and management
strategies, market knowledge;
- Economic aspects and institutional linkages;
• Resulting in more failures than successes.

15. - a subprogram of the CGIAR Research Program
on Water, Land and Ecosystems (WLE)
dedicated to applied research on the safe
recovery of water, nutrients and energy from
domestic and agro-industrial waste streams.
16. We aim to create impact through different lines of action
research, including:
i. developing and testing scalable RRR business models;
ii. assessing and mitigating risks from RRR for public health
and the environment;
iii. supporting public and private entities with innovative
approaches for the safe reuse of wastewater and organic
waste;
iv. improving rural-urban linkages and resource allocations
while minimizing the negative urban footprint on the
peri-urban environment.
