Dear Builder,

The origins of the word 🗣️ comunicação (communication) comes from the latin 'communicare' which means 'share something with someone'. This remind us that communication embraces more than verbal or written exchanges - it involves sharing information, experiences, stories and emotions, transforming the individual into a collective.

Through this newsletter, we aspire to celebrate the power of communication and share it with our community.

In this sense, we would like to share with you a new BGI project named AmpliAqua 🐟, a fully operational unit of an aquaponic system that aims to adopt sustainable and viable practices addressing the challenges faced by traditional fish farming.

As part of the project, we will be delivering a Basic Introduction to Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) Course. Mark your calendars for April 29th-30th, as well as May 7th-8th, and get ready! Registrations will be opening up very soon, so stay tuned for updates!

Discover the backstory of AmpliAqua by exploring our 'Did You Know' section below! 👇

Did you know...

In Portugal the Fish Consumption per capita is 59,9 Kg 🐟

In comparison with the EU average of 24 Kg per capita, there is a clear superiority in consumption. 

AmpliAqua was developed to contribute to the increasing access to protein produced in a more sustainable way, and to take advantage of an opportunity: valorization of resources from aquaculture as a source of nutrients for hydroponics, in a logic of circularity.
