NESTLER is a joint project between the EU and African member states designed to promote One-Health sustainable partnership. The project aims to bring together interdisciplinary technological advances to effectively monitor the well-being of animals, plants, and humans in a holistic approach. The complementarity between the stakeholders will extend upon the ongoing initiatives from FARM2FORK strategies that have resulted in integrated software systems and solutions. The novelty of the NESTLER project lies in the development and integration of advanced remote sensing technologies. The project platform will develop software interfaces for ingesting satellite data sources along with video streams captured from unmanned aerial vehicles and other IoT devices installed for monitoring the environmental and animal well-being. The large-volume of data ingested into the platform will be subjected to additional processing for the extraction of intuitive insights with the assistance of machine learning algorithms and deep-learning network architectures. The extracted insights will be translated into predictive models affecting One-Health sustainability programme using the machine automation. Additionally, the NESTLER project will also undertake research activities to investigate the impact of insect protein on the circular economy for the well-being of animals. The project will develop methodologies for edible insect farming which will be in animal farming. The project will also conduct research studies on the impact of animal waste in crop-based farming. In complementary to the analysis of health benefits, the project will also undertake efforts to evaluate the economic sustainability of such farming practices which will lead to the setup to joint EU-Africa joint task force on One-Health Sustainability. The outcome of the project will result in a transition from a linear economy to a circular economy delivering sustained growth and development.

NESTLER是欧盟和非洲成员国之间的一个联合项目，旨在促进一个健康可持续伙伴关系。该项目旨在汇集跨学科的技术进步，以全面的方法有效地监测动物，植物和人类的福祉。利益相关者之间的互补性将扩展到FARM 2FORK战略的持续举措，这些举措已导致集成软件系统和解决方案。NESTLER项目的新奇在于开发和综合了先进的遥感技术。该项目平台将开发用于嵌入式卫星数据源的软件接口，沿着从无人驾驶飞行器和其他物联网设备捕获的视频流，用于监测环境和动物的健康。在机器学习算法和深度学习网络架构的帮助下，平台中摄取的大量数据将进行额外处理，以提取直观的见解。提取的见解将被转化为预测模型，影响使用机器自动化的One-Health可持续发展计划。此外，NESTLER项目还将开展研究活动，以调查昆虫蛋白对动物福祉循环经济的影响。该项目将开发食用昆虫养殖的方法，这将在畜牧业。该项目还将对动物粪便对农作物耕作的影响进行研究。作为对健康效益分析的补充，该项目还将努力评估这种耕作方法的经济可持续性，这将导致建立欧盟-非洲单一健康可持续性联合工作队。该项目的成果将导致从线性经济向循环经济的过渡，实现可持续增长和发展。
