Addressing Research Gaps on the Impacts of Solid Waste and Wastewater on Water Resources in South Africa: Development and application of a method for assessing the effects of wastewater on wetland ecosystem services

This report provides a rapid assessment framework estimating the likelihood of wastewater effects across 15 ecosystem services and demonstrates application at nine wetland sites.

Outputs support prioritisation of management actions and inform national biodiversity assessment and policy on wastewater impacts under data‑limited conditions using probabilistic modelling.

This report has multiple appendices, which are available on request.
