🌐Global Educational Collaboration
Sustainability and education:
-
Sustainable Food Production
Students learn how plants and fish can coexist in a balanced Aquaponics system producing food efficiently while conserving water, -
Global Educational Collaboration
Schools from various countries, languages, and cultural backgrounds participate using identical Aquaponic systems. This shared experience fosters international cooperation and learning in a dynamic, hands-on environment.
Key Benefits:
-
Continuous Production
Each system continuously yields fresh vegetables and fish, creating educational opportunities and hands-on learning experience. -
Community Impact
Students and volunteers have the opportunity to share their harvests, contributing to their communities in fun and creative ways. -
Empowerment Through Education
The program provides the opportunity to learn about sustainable food systems empowering students to take active roles in food production and sharing.
How It Works:
-
Our global Aquaponics education network connects participating schools virtually, encouraging cultural exchange and friendships.
-
Each school has its own Aquaponics system and can join in on in a weekly Zoom with partner schools nationally or internationally.
-
Schools share their harvest results, troubleshoot challenges and celebrate their success.
A Universal Platform for Learning and Growth:
This project allows for people everywhere, no matter what their location or circumstance may be, to learn valuable life skills, appreciate global diversity, and contribute meaningfully to both their local and global communities.
Our school program utilizes the Nelson & Pade Aquaponics School Systems, a comprehensive, and simple system that includes:
-
A fully integrated Aquaponics system
-
An operations manual for daily system management
-
Educator’s guides and student manuals
-
Accredited curriculum license
-
Video lessons and digital educational resources
This program seamlessly integrates STEM education with culturally enriching content focused on language, nutrition, and sustainability.
System Features and Impact
Each participating school can log its harvest data, contributing to the running totals on the goals page, sharing the collective achievements.
The school can use 1/2 of the harvest production for fundraising and donate the other 1/2 to the help the community, teachers and families.
Financial Sustainability and Impact
Each system is designed to generate continuous fundraising for the school and healthy food for all.
The ongoing food production creates a multiplier of opportunities to share food.
We will have a scholarship awards system that will be announced soon.
