Mini Ahupuaʻa for Lifestyle and Mea'ai ​through Aquaponics

Welina Mai Kakou! Aloha!  

The MALAMA research study aims to test a culturally grounded family-based backyard aquaponics intervention with Native Hawaiian families living in Waimānalo.

The study innovatively merges the modern technology of aquaponics with traditional Native Hawaiian practices to create a “mini ahupuaʻa” system in families’ backyards to provide constant access to fresh fruits, vegetables, and fish.
