3 Integrated Water Management 1. Considers all parts of the water cycle 2. In an Integrated System 3. Considers all requirements for water 4. Considers local context 5. Includes all stakeholders 6. Balancing environment, social and economic needs, short and long term
4 SWITCH themes 1. Urban Water Paradigm Shift 2. Storm water management 3. Efficient water supply and water use for all 4. Water Use in Sanitation and Waste Management 5. Urban Water Environments and Planning 6. Governance and Institutional Change
5 SWITCH Learning Alliance A Learning Alliance is a group of individuals or organisations with a shared interest in innovation and the scaling-up of innovation, in a topic of mutual interest. -Platform / Series of Platforms at different levels -Research in Use -Scaling up of experiences
6 SWITCH Theme 5 To integrate urban water services into the ecological and other productive functions of water at city and river basin level. Delivery: Optimization achieved in balancing the exploitation of natural urban water systems and their ecological, landscape and livelihood functions, at city and river basin
7 SWITCH 5: Workpackages Urban water environments and planning 5.1 Urban waterscapes planning and reorganization: 5.2 Water and Urban Agriculture 5.3 Natural systems in the municipal water cycle
8 SWITCH WP Water and urban agriculture Use of Urban Water (fresh and waste water) for Urban Agriculture, and other Livelihood Opportunities Options for efficient (re-)use of urban water and wastewater for urban agriculture and other livelihood opportunities will be assessed, tested and applied at Demo-city level.
9 Urban Agriculture Urban agriculture can be defined as the growing of plants and the raising of animals for food and other uses within cities and periurban areas, and also includes related activities such as the production and delivery of inputs, and the processing and marketing of products
10 Urban agriculture is part of, and interacts with the urban ecological and economic system -Urban residents as labourers -Urban resources (land, water, waste) -Urban consumers - Impacts on urban economy and ecology - Part of the urban food system - Competing for land with other urban functions - Influenced by urban policies, plans norms and regulations
11 DIMENSIONS OF UA Subsistence Livelihoods Crisis Mitigation Subsistence economy Food and medicinal plants Often urban poor Family based Reduce expenses, improve diet Waste(water) recycling Environmental education Contact with nature Health Parks & Gardens Department Recycling Leisure Recreation Market production Enterprises Income/employment generation Individual or family based Production chain Micro-enterprises/ Cooperatives Direct marketing/ Intermediaries Financial support institutes

See Learning Alliances
17 SWITCH 5.2 objectives To develop a better understanding and of and promote benefits associated with the role, contributions and potential of urban agriculture and other productive uses of water (along the water chain) to people s livelihoods in the selected pilot cities; To establish multi-stakeholder working-groups in each city that engage civil society (e.g. NGOs, CBOs, farmers) with municipal agencies (e.g. policy-makers, legislative and planning authorities), researchers and the private sector, on the integration of productive use of water in urban planning; To train members of the working groups and other key players in multi-stakeholder approaches, and to develop local skills and capacity in key agricultural (& other livelihood activities) and water management areas; To identify and integrate acceptable and appropriate urban water management approaches and strategies into the policy, legislative and regulatory, urban planning and decision-making frameworks of each city; To initiate and monitor at least two pilot projects in each of these cities on productive use of water including freshwater, storm and waste water: To disseminate and promote the lessons learnt within the cities and on national and international levels through multiple media channels (workshops, internet, etc) and demonstrations.

45 Economic Impact National level: Urban agriculture complements rural agriculture and increases the efficiency of the national agricultural system: it provides products that rural agriculture cannot supply easily. City level: Source of income. Urban agriculture realises good net returns. And Household Level: less spent on food, Also added value generated input supply, agroprocessing and marketing, agro-tourism, etcetera.

54 SWITCH To review the theory and practice of urban agriculture (and other livelihood opportunities), identify and evaluate the implications risks and benefits, constraints and opportunities - for its (their) integration into the urban economic and ecological system. T5.2.2 To organise and undertake a workshop for urban authorities, civil society and private sector stakeholders in each city to inform and gain commitment for the programme and participation in the city working group; and as necessary, specific follow-up meetings.
55 SWITCH T5.2.3 To provide on the job training with respect to multistakeholder processes, and specific training inputs on technologies and methodologies (when required), like water-treatment (in close relation to WP. 5.1), irrigation, production of specific crops (hydroponics, etc), marketing, processing, etc. T5.2.4 Each city partner to facilitate a multi-stakeholder process on urban water use for agricultural production, consisting of several concise steps (e.g. awareness raising, baseline data gathering including using adapting GIS on major land use and water sources, participatory diagnosis, evaluation of current water management strategies, identification of perceptions, project and action plan formulation, monitoring and planning and policy formulation.
56 SWITCH T5.2.5 Participatory on farm and markets research with stakeholders to develop wastewater risk reduction methods to provide appropriate balance between livelihoods of farmers and other beneficiaries in the supply chain and safeguarding public health concerns for better policy formulation and implementation. T5.2.6 In this process, several (action) research activities will be identified by the major stakeholders, on improvement of agricultural production, water use, water treatment, health risks (guidelines, typologies, risk mitigation strategies both in the field and in processing and marketing, etc), ecological sanitation. To allow for this, grants will be administered for local researchers in the assessment of local situation and in research into key issues identified (improvement of urban agriculture and risk minimisation of wastewater use).
57 SWITCH T5.2.7 Flexible guidelines and risk minimization strategies for the use of water for (urban) agriculture will be developed and incorporated into the relevant formal frameworks. T5.2.8 Local and international exchange and discussion will be facilitated and systematized, and integrated knowledge will be disseminated in reports, but also using internet (e-conferences, and websites), contribution to existing newsletters, through city exchange visits and development of policy briefs, through SWITCH and related platforms (RUAF, WASPA, CityFarmer, etc).
58 SWITCH T5.2.9 Low-cost, appropriate, and decentralised treatment and production management technologies will be developed, adapted, demonstrated and promoted in coordination with other relevant sub-themes (e.g. WP 5.1, ecological sanitation).
