Description
A team of undergraduate engineering students developed and installed an aquaponic system at a school for children from low income families in Zaragoza, Guatemala. The students used a systems thinking approach as part of a design thinking process for this project. During a 10-day immersion in Guatemala, they learned from and worked with local aquaponic experts and members of the community to install a system that is sustainable and appropriate for the school. This project is part of the Ethos Center within the UD School of Engineering.
