AQUA-NEXUS: Transforming Food Security & Sustainability in CAR
The AQUA-NEXUS project aims to revolutionize food production in peri-urban Bangui, Central African Republic (CAR), by establishing a circular, resource-efficient food system. Through small-scale aquaculture, insect farming, vermicomposting, and small livestock integration, the project seeks to enhance food security, improve local livelihoods, and promote sustainability. This established Living Lab will foster collaboration, training, and gender empowerment, creating a scalable model for sustainable agriculture that can be replicated across Africa.
