We’re excited to partner with @SeafoodResearch to strengthen animal welfare practices across Kenya’s aquaculture VC. This supports youth enterprises under @YISA_Kenya, farmer training, research with institutions like Maseno University, and market-ready production systems.🐟

Highlights: • Women’s participation in #aquaculture be co-designed to ensure initiatives reflect lived realities • Opportunities across the value chain are vast and available for youth to pursue • Safe spaces are still needed for women to fully exercise agency and leadership

As 2025 comes to a close, we’re grateful for the youth, partners & counties who made the journey meaningful. Here’s to rest, reflection & a stronger 2026. #HappyHolidays2025 from all of us at Hydro Victoria!🎄 We resume office on 5th Jan 2026. See you then!

Independence means building our own solutions including local, affordable feed & sustainable aquaculture. Youth in the YISA program are turning waste → BSF larvae → animal feed → decent income. That’s food independence, powered by young Kenyans 🚀. Happy #JamhuriDay!

"#BSFfarming isn’t the problem. Negative perceptions are". Youth in Bondo & Rang’ala shared how community once thought ‘bugs & organic waste' can’t pay bills & have since become frequent customers, buying larvae for feed. Perceptions are changing, slowly but surely!#YouthVoices

End-year reflections. Started off in #Homabay yesterday. Today we're in #Siaya listening to youth in #blacksoldierfarming, patrons & other stakeholders sharing what’s working and what needs support ahead of year 3 of the @YISA_Kenya program. Busia, Kakamega & Kisumu, see you 🔜.

On 27th/9/25, we were honoured to host Mr. Felix Juma, Director @HydroVictoriaKe, together with his team at our Innovation and Green Hub. The purpose of the visit was to share our journey of success & explore potential areas of collaboration in building a sustainable community.

Providing key inputs to #BlackSoldierFly farming trainees to advance their production journeys and set them up for success! Onwards @KJamtaka. Mbele sawa! @YISA_Kenya

Kenya imports most of the soya used for #feedproduction, yet we could source that protein locally🤔. 📽️ web.facebook.com/share/v/1CekYB… Our focus: train youth to farm BSF larvae, cutting feed costs & boosting local economies. Kazi mkononi, pesa mfukoni.💪
