2017 Ganador(a) | | Kiribati
The Te Maeu Project focusses on developing a low-impact hydroponics growing system to bring fresh crops to Kiribati, in response to land being lost to king tides and flooding, as well as to imported food bringing unwanted garbage. Locally grown, nutritious food will reduces diabetes and malnutrition, as well as provides entrepreneurial opportunities to the local communities. Less waste and better nutrition means a happier, healthier future for the people of Kiribati.
