Kolkata’s wastewater has been used in aquaculture for fish farming for many years, providing cheap food, livelihoods for the farm workers and protection from unregulated wastewater discharges downstream. A number of problems face the industry and this article describes an action-planning approach involving local stakeholders to confront these difficulties.
