AWARE sets out to increase capacity to produce fish for human consumption at KM 0 in every European city, with no impact on natural habitats, no dependence from natural freshwater availability, and high resiliency to climate change This goal could be met by farming fish locally using reclaimed water. Europe lacks the regulatory and policy framework to allow such a value chain to take root, due also to the absence of compelling scientific evidence of safety, quality, economic feasibility, and social acceptability. With AWARE, we want to remove the barriers preventing reclaimed water aquaculture from becoming a European reality. We will demonstrate seamless integration of our solutions in an aquaponic recirculation system (RAS) with IoT monitoring and automation technologies to improve its operation and overall sustainability metrics. We will create the first European case study for reclaimed water aquaponics in the town of Fasano (Puglia, Italy), where we will leverage the results of a pre-existing H2020 project on advanced wastewater treatment. With the case study, we will - Demonstrate technical solutions for efficient and sustainable aquaponics from reclaimed wastewater - Increase the circularity of wastewater as freshwater resource to be exploited where it is generated - Create a new farm-to-fork value chain, contributing to European economic growth and to urban KM 0 farming - Lay the ground for a new regulatory and policy framework in support of European aquaculture The project will go as far as conducting human intervention (i.e., feeding tests) on a panel of volunteers to obtain evidence of safety and quality of the produced food. In parallel, it will develop a sustainable business model and strategy for the for the future upscaling of the pilot solution, including its application to other European communities and in international development projects. Our consortium includes a large network, one extra-european partner, and one international organisation.

AWARE致力于在欧洲每个城市提高生产供人类消费的0 KM鱼类的能力，不影响自然栖息地，不依赖天然淡水供应，对气候变化具有高弹性。欧洲缺乏监管和政策框架来让这样一个价值链扎根，这也是因为缺乏令人信服的安全、质量、经济可行性和社会可接受性的科学证据。通过AWARE，我们希望消除阻碍再生水水产养殖成为欧洲现实的障碍。我们将展示我们的解决方案在鱼菜共生再循环系统（RAS）中与物联网监控和自动化技术的无缝集成，以改善其运营和整体可持续性指标。我们将在意大利普利亚的法萨诺镇创建欧洲首个再生水鱼菜共生案例研究，在那里我们将利用现有的H2020高级废水处理项目的成果。通过案例研究，我们将-展示回收废水的高效和可持续鱼菜共生的技术解决方案-增加废水作为淡水资源的循环利用-创造一个新的农场到餐桌的价值链，为欧洲经济增长和城市KM 0农业做出贡献-为支持欧洲水产养殖的新监管和政策框架奠定基础该项目将进行人为干预（即，喂养测试），以获得生产的食品的安全性和质量的证据。与此同时，它将为今后扩大试点解决方案制定一个可持续的商业模式和战略，包括将其应用于其他欧洲共同体和国际发展项目。我们的联盟包括一个大型网络，一个欧洲以外的合作伙伴和一个国际组织。
