The City of Windhoek, Namibia has a pioneering reclamation plant capable of recycling most of its wastewater into potable water. The goal of this project, sponsored by the City of Windhoek, was to assess the public perception and acceptability of the reclamation plant. Our findings reveal that the residents of Windhoek are vastly unaware of the reclamation process. It will be necessary for the City of Windhoek to promote public understanding through an effective outreach program.
