PROJECT OBJECTIVES:
This project aims to sustainably increase protein intake and food security for two Beninese orphanages by establishing aquaponic farms.

This project addresses urgent threats to public health and the environment in the Lake Atitlán basin.

To reduce household-level contamination and protect the watershed, the project will install decentralized greywater and blackwater treatment systems, provide in-home water filters, and deliver training on sustainable sanitation. Alongside this, 8,000 trees will be planted, with community education on climate change, tree care, and agroforestry diversification to restore ecological balance. The initiative will be carried out in 3–6 small communities within the municipality of Santa Lucía Utatlán in collaboration with Water4Life, Wellkind, and local leaders.
