Smart Aquaculture. Sustainable Oceans.
A community-owned monitoring platform for climate-smart Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) — built for low bandwidth, local access, and real decisions on fish and seaweed production.
About Bahari CBO Network
Bahari CBO Network is a community-led umbrella organization advancing sustainable fisheries, aquaculture, climate resilience, and gender equality across Kenya’s coastal communities. We prioritize women’s economic empowerment, evidence-based advocacy, and community ownership of data systems.
Healthy waters. Stronger livelihoods.
An integrated approach connecting aquaculture, seaweed cultivation, and practical environmental monitoring.
Blue Empowerment (BE) Project
The BE Project supports climate-smart IMTA interventions to improve productivity, environmental sustainability, and livelihoods for women and youth in fisheries and aquaculture.
Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA)
Fish, seaweed, and marine ecosystems working together. Nutrients from fish support seaweed growth, helping maintain balanced waters and stronger yields.
Healthy Waters
Balanced systems support water quality and resilience across seasons.
Seaweed Growth
Seaweed benefits from nutrients, improving productivity and livelihoods.
Data-driven Decisions
Weekly monitoring supports evidence-based actions for farmers and technical staff.
Farmer’s Link
A clear view of monitoring activity across coastal sites, with temperature readings, device connectivity, and conditions that may need attention.
2 monitoring points are outside the configured temperature range of 20–32°C.
