Huawei and IUCN Launch Tech4Nature Project to Protect Kenya’s Coral Reefs

Published

on

By

NAIROBI, Kenya, Jan. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Huawei, International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and local partner Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) have launched a Tech4Nature project to monitor and protect coral reef and biodiversity in Kenya’s Kisite-Mpunguti Marine Park and Reserve.

Aligned with Huawei’s TECH4ALL initiative and the IUCN Green List, the objective of the three-year project is to strengthen monitoring and management efficacy of the protected area. Located on the southern coast of Kenya, Kisite-Mpunguti Marine Park and Reserve faces a number of nature conservation challenges. These include:

Illegal fishing and insufficient human resources to effectively patrol the area.A lack of remote monitoring of the reserve’s three coral islands coupled with pressures created by tourism, as the fringing reefs are popular diving sites.Limited community awareness of the importance of reef and biodiversity protection.Insufficient communications network infrastructure for underpinning tech-driven monitoring.

“Tech4Nature is an expansive project that falls under Huawei’s digital inclusion initiative TECH4ALL, where we look at ways to implement technology and innovation in various sectors of our day today life and improving global standards and ensure that we have a sustainable way of life in the world,” said Khadija Mohamed, Director of Media and Government Relations for Huawei Kenya.

Underwater cameras, photogrammetry, and audio monitoring technologies will be deployed to monitor marine life, including the biomass and population of parrot fish. In many coral reef ecosystems, parrot fish are a keystone species that, due to their diet, help prevent coral from being smothered by seaweed and algae. The solution will also monitor substrate cover in the reef ecosystems, seagrass cover, and the occurrence of green turtles and bottlenose dolphins, which are classified on the IUCN Red List as endangered and vulnerable, respectively.

“The technology we are introducing is a groundbreaking development for marine conservation in Kenya. It will serve as the first monitoring tool for data collection, analysis, and management in a marine protected area. Additionally, this innovation presents an opportunity to assist the park in attaining IUCN Green List certification, aligning with the sustainability goals valued by tourists and ensuring that future generations can continue to benefit from our marine parks,” said Innocent Kabenga, Country Representative for the IUCN Kenya Country Office.

AI trained to recognize specific target species by sight or sound will provide real-time data-driven insights into the behaviors, populations, and distribution of biodiversity in the reserve and reef ecosystem. The system will also be able to identify boats used for illegal fishing, and send alerts for rangers to intervene in near real time.

A digital power solution and improved network connectivity covering the park and watch tower will enable the rapid transmission of collected data to a cloud server for analysis by AI.

The project will be implemented in partnership with Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) and Wildlife Research and Training Institute (WRTI). Based on the project’s data-driven insights, the Tech4Nature partners will be able to develop targeted conservation measures for the reserve.

“For us to deliver our mandate of protecting and conserving our wildlife in both terrestrial and marine ecosystems, you have to understand your resources very well. We are partnering with Huawei and IUCN to deploy underwater cameras to acquire some data on marine mammal, corals, and fisheries to make informed decisions. The advantage of this technology it can be deployed in wider area that we couldn’t patrol every single day to get data for day and night for us to make good, informed decisions,” said Adan Kala, Senior Assistant Director, Coast Conservation Area, Kenya Wildlife Service.

In addition, the project will include community outreach to raise awareness about biodiversity changes over time and the presence of different species, including those that are threatened, vulnerable, or endangered.

The site will be assessed against the IUCN Green List Standard, with the goal being that the reserve obtains Green List certification.

The study ‘Active Packaging in the Food Industry’, published in October 2024, explores the growing significance of active packaging in response to changing consumer demands and market trends. Unlike traditional packaging, which is designed to be inert, active packaging interacts with the product and its environment to extend shelf life and maintain food quality. This can involve incorporating additives into packaging systems, such as oxygen and ethylene scavengers, antimicrobial agents, antioxidants, and flavor-absorbing or releasing compounds. Intelligent packaging systems, like time-temperature indicators and gas detectors, are also discussed, emphasizing the importance of consumer acceptance for the commercial success of these technologies. The study reviews key mechanisms used in active packaging, including oxygen scavengers, which reduce the presence of oxygen in food packaging by using iron-based or ascorbic acid-based systems. These methods help maintain product freshness by limiting oxidative damage. Carbon dioxide-generating systems are also used to suppress microbial growth, particularly in meat, poultry, fish, and cheese packaging. Furthermore, ethylene scavengers are vital for extending the shelf life of fruits and vegetables by controlling ripening processes.
