The Challenge We're Tackling

Coastal ecosystems are disappearing at an alarming rate, taking with them crucial carbon sinks and community livelihoods. Traditional conservation approaches often overlook local communities, while carbon markets struggle to channel capital to grassroots initiatives.

Community-led algae farming operations

We empower coastal communities to own and operate sustainable algae farms, combining local knowledge with technical training to create lasting economic opportunities.

Scientifically verified carbon sequestration

Our rigorous monitoring protocols and geospatial mapping provide transparent, verifiable data on carbon capture rates that meet international carbon credit standards.

Biodiversity enhancement

Our native algae cultivation systems create thriving marine habitats that support diverse species while contributing to local ecosystem restoration.

Community-First Approach

Our success metrics go beyond carbon:

Local leadership in project operations

Community members guide key decisions and hold management positions across our operations, ensuring projects align with local needs and cultural values.

Long-term ecosystem stewardship

By combining traditional ecological knowledge with scientific monitoring, we empower communities to become long-term guardians of their coastal ecosystems while generating sustainable income.

Skills development and capacity building

We provide comprehensive training in algae farming, environmental monitoring, and business management, creating pathways for community members to advance into technical and leadership roles.

Fair profit sharing mechanisms

Our transparent benefit-sharing model allocates a significant portion of carbon credit revenues directly to community members through both individual payments and community development funds.

UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

These are the goals the acquabank project impacts

SDG 14: Life Below Water

By promoting sustainable use of marine resources through community-led algae cultivation that enhances biodiversity and protects coastal ecosystems.

SDG 13: Climate Action

Through carbon sequestration activities that directly mitigate climate change while building community resilience.

SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth

Through creating new green economy jobs and entrepreneurship opportunities in coastal areas that may have limited economic alternatives.

SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production

Through sustainable production of biomass, bio-inputs, and potentially biofuels.
