General BJ2024TEA535A101 01/09/2024 - 31/08/2029 Pineapple production is at the core of export diversification in Benin. Exhausting soil nutrients and the energy demand for pineapple juice production challenge its sustainability. By collaborating with pineapple production associations, the simultaneous valorization of underutilized residues from pineapple crops and processing via anaerobic digestion to renewable energy and the production of organic fertilizers will be optimized and demonstrated considering local needs and industry’s reality. In the long term, the project achieves three…

General EC2023SIN376B125 01/09/2023 - 31/08/2025 In Ecuador, 12% of the total surface area is used for agriculture, of which 60% is situated in the coastal area (Costa) and 35% is situated in the Amazon region (Oriente). In many cases, agriculture activities (feedstock) and fish farming are carried out by small familiar companies. Next to these farmers, also other companies and households are not connected to the sewer system. Only 30% of the domestic wastewater is treated in Ecuador. A major problem nowadays is that the untreated wastewater of these point sources is discharged without…

General BO2019TEA480A103 01/01/2019 - 31/08/2024 At present, aquaculture at Lake Titicaca is based on rainbow trout fed with small fish that are caught from the lake. This is a non-sustainable situation because 1) trout is an invasive species and is disturbing the valuable ecosystem of the lake, 2) indigenous small fish are on the decline due to the inefficient feeding strategy, 3) trout – as carnivorous species – accumulates more mercury from the polluted lake, making it a threat for human health, and 4) the con-sumption of only fish filet has an imbalanced nutrient profile. This project’s…

General ET2019TEA485A102 01/01/2019 - 31/08/2024 The livelihood activities of rural communities in Ethiopia are performed at the expense of biodiversity in areas with a high degree of contacts between humans and the wildlife. This project is aimed at improving academic and research capacity at Wolaita Sodo University (WSU) focusing on ecological interactions at the human-wildlife interface and generating better knowledge of human-wildlife conflict to elucidate possible mitigation measures. The intermediate results (outputs) anticipated from the project include, description of the human-…

General There is now a scientific consensus on the need for a radical change in our food systems to ensure food and nutritional security for all and to achieve the SDGs while preserving the environment (IAASTD, IPES-Food, IPBES, UN TEEBAgriFood, ...). Agroecological transition is one of the major ways of radically transforming food systems, as recommended by the Committee on Word Food Security (HLPE 2020 report). Indeed, agroecological principles emphasize the right to food and the active participation of vulnerable groups and women in food strategies, they promote regenerative practices…

General Il existe aujourd'hui un consensus scientifique sur la nécessité d'un changement de nos systèmes alimentaires pour assurer la sécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle de tous et atteindre les ODD (IAASTD, IPES-Food, IPBES, UN TEEBAgriFood, etc.). En Bolivie, l'augmentation de 54 % des importations d'aliments traditionnels lors de la dernière décennie et des surfacés destinées à la monoculture d’exportation est très inquiétante ; en outre, la pandémie de COVID 19 a démontré la vulnérabilité des systèmes alimentaires actuels. La transition agroécologique est l'un des principaux moyens de…
