Tilapia, Tech, and Transformation: Elevating Fish Welfare in Africa
In this episode of Aquademia, we dive into the growing field of fish welfare with Wasseem Emam, founder of Ethical Seafood Research (ESR). From tilapia farms in Egypt to high-level UN policy discussions, Wasseem shares how ESR is transforming aquaculture in Africa and beyond. Learn how technology like the Tilapia Welfare App is improving practices on thousands of farms, why humane slaughter is an urgent challenge, and how ESR is embedding animal welfare into university curricula, national strategies, and global policy. Whether you're in aquaculture, sustainability, or just passionate about ethical food systems, this conversation offers a rare look into a fast-evolving and often overlooked frontier of seafood production.
