Opis (eng)

Aquaculture is vital for global food security, especially in developing regions where fish is a key protein source. The sector’s rapid growth supports millions of livelihoods but is vulnerable to disease outbreaks that threaten aquatic health, ecological safety, and sustainability. Overuse of antibiotics to control diseases raises concerns about antimicrobial resistance and drug residues in the food chain. While ecological aquaculture offers solutions, scaling it without losing productivity is difficult, making innovative, sustainable disease management essential. The COST Action BioAqua tackles this by creating childfriendly educational materials on fish welfare and One Health to inspire future generations toward sustainable aquaculture. The BioAqua comic designed science communication, entitled “Fish Superpowers!”, has been crafted to disseminate the state of-the-art technologies used for sustainable aquaculture to young children at school (non-specialist audiences). It features several chapters explaining the main topics related to aquaculture, food safety, and sustainability. The comic provides multiple educational sources: Science education (fun introduction to microbiology, nutrition, and environmental science), Health education (lessons on why food safety and hygiene matter), Civic and ecological education (understanding sustainability, shared responsibility, and the One Health concept).
