PO4-2 Plant Lake Water Management: from algae pollution to PO4 reuse in support of local agriculture Short general project overviewLG Sonic has developed an easy, economically attractive and environmentally friendly manner to bind phosphorous (P) in a highly pure form from lake water. This P can be directly used as fertilizer in surrounding agricultural areas. This system makes use of an innovative method to filter one layer of the water only, specifically the layer where P accumulates during summer months when the lake stratifies. Thanks to this method, the water can be treated without adding a metal or chemical to the water that may negatively affect the ecosystem.The envisioned project aims at providing a solution based on the PO42Plant technology of LG Sonic for Lake Qaraoun. To do so, LG Sonic collaborates with the Litani River Authority and Waternet to define the technological and economic feasibility of this technology for Lake Qaraoun. This is because the feasibility of the PO42Plant depends on many factors that need to be addressed, such as the concentration of P in the lake; the level of stratification; the facilities around the lake to implement the technology and the possibility to use the recovered P as fertilizer.Initial activities and results of the projectAfter a successful feasibility study in the PO4-2-Plant project, LG Sonic and Wereld Waternet will be able to implement the PO4-2-Plant technology in Lake Qaraoun. This will improve the local situation in the Bekaa valley two-fold:1. Restore the water quality in Lake Qaraoun and prevent HABs, making it possible for farmers and fishers to use the lake water once more for irrigation, fishing and recreational activities.2. Provide local farmers with low cost, sustainable fertilizer for their farmland, isolated from Lake Qaraoun, contributing to a circular economy.

Monitoring of a shallow Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) pilot in Vietnam The objective of the monitoring is to evaluate the performance of a shallow Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) pilot, installed in the commune of Long Son commune in the Tra Vinh province, Vietnam.Within the Framework for coordination of Automated Mobility in Europe (FAME), a Partners for Water 4 project was implemented to install a shallow Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) system in the Long Son commune in the Tra Vinh province of Vietnam. The system was installed as a pilot to assess the potential of shallow ASR to increase water availability for farmers during the dry season and reduce their vulnerability to drought.The results of this pilot should increase the understanding of how these systems can support the crop production of farmers by making more fresh groundwater available when surface water is too saline. The pilot was installed in October 2021, right in the onset of the dry season. Since the FAME project ended in February 2022, the pilot could just be monitored for a few months, which were not enough to conclude on its performance.Understanding how much extra fresh groundwater is available as a result of the shallow ASR, and what is the quality of this water, will provide the insights needed to estimate how this water could improve crop production and reduce the vulnerability of farmers to drought. This information is also indispensable to conduct a cost-benefit analysis so that farmers and water authorities can evaluate the best strategy to implement ASR in their plots and the potential upscaling in the province.

Needs analysis urban water management The purpose of this project is to increase the business opportunities for the Dutch water sector on the one hand and increase the knowledge and expertise of three big municipalities to purchase and maintain proper technologies on the other hand. The tool that can be used is a Centre of Expertise (CoE) founded with the support of the Transition Facility (TF). When the financial support did end, the CoE did not function well enough. However, the network is still there, there are lessons learned, and there is a need for the municipalities for Dutch technology and expertise. The needs analysis will provide an outline of how a capacity building programme could function in favour of the needs of the municipalities, is relevant for the South African water sector and lines up with opportunities for Dutch technology and expertise providers of the water sector.The analysis will also tune in with the possibilities to liaise with the new Orange Knowledge Programme in the short term and give input for setting up a programme for skills transfer to test new technologies and train staff for water treatment works. These projects should be designed by June 2018.

LAND-at-scale – Policy dialogue on legislative land governance and tenure rights for vulnerable IDPs (LAS23IQ1AR) LAND-at-scale in Iraq consists of two complementary projects. Firstly, UN-Habitat will initiate and conduct national policy dialogue on the reform of laws related to land governance to address challenges faced by Iraqis while also contributing to securing tenure and protect housing, land and property (HLP) rights by registering and resolving land claims of Internal Displaced People (IDPs) and returnees in war-affected governorates in Sinjar. Secondly, the Hague Institute for Innovation of Law (HIIL) will identify existing small-scale initiatives addressing HLP issues in Sinjar and support these for further scaling and explore integration in the policy dialogue.
Due diligence in metallurgic supply chains Three companies will execute this project: Tata Steel, LDM and Hunter Douglas. All three are members of VNMI that intends to sign an IMVO covenant.In general, VNMI members use metal ores or concentrates, secondary metals or metal scrap and semi manufactured metal products. These products are partly sourced from countries where child labour may be an issue. The first step of this project entails the selection of at least 2 specific supply chains and countries that will be the focus for the project. The root causes of child labour in these supply chains will be analysed in this project, including mitigating measures to address these and taking into account the companies’ responsibilities within the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGP). In addition, current internal operational processes will be reviewed and if necessary adjusted (action plans for implementation will be developed). Based on the lessons learned from this project a tailored child labour tool kit will be developed that will be made available to other VNMI members and other interested parties.
