PrAEctiCe's
Vision

PrAEctiCe helps smallholder farmers in their agroecological transition by exploring the potential of agroecological practices in East Africa.Ā 

PrAEctiCe will provide a novel agroecology indicator set focusing on circular water-energy-nutrient systems of integrated aqua-agriculture while keeping the smallholder farmers’ needs at the centre.

Ā 

PrAEctiCe is a Horizon Europe project funded by the European Commission.Ā 

Agroecology means productive, sustainable, resilient, and environmentally safe farming and food systems, combining indigenous knowledge with cutting-edge science, optimizing interactions between plants, animals, humans, and the environment, and promoting the transition to fair, just, and sovereign food systems.

PrAEctiCe will quantify the impacts of agroecological practices in a local context by identifying the most promising agroecological approaches for existing farms and providing suggestions for going forward, providing evidence that the circular water-energy-nutrient systems of integrated aquaculture-agriculture are amongst the best practices for East Africa to address the issue of climate change while increasing the financial viability of smallholder farms.
