Abstract

Greywater use is a recognized way to conserve water and increase agricultural output. There remain concerns about health and environmental risks associated with its use. The International Development Research Centre (IDRC) has supported five projects in the West Bank, Lebanon and Jordan on the use of greywater. The results of research on related social, economic, technical and policy issues are presented. The projects have found that community acceptance is essential if technological solutions are to succeed. The implementation of greywater strategies should take place within the framework of the new World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines.
