Project Mila

Youth-led. Community-driven. Turning food waste into local solutions through insects and data. “Mila” - a Swahili word for custom - embodies our spirit of culture, unity, and interconnectedness. We believe that sustainability begins within communities, guided by innovation rooted in nature. At Mila, our mission is simple yet bold: to transform food waste into value using the Black Soldier Fly (BSF)- creating nature-based solutions for a cleaner, cooler planet and a circular economy. Our Core Focus Areas: • Environment • Biodiversity • Circularity • Food Security As a youth-led initiative, we’re reimagining waste management through science, community, and purpose. We align our work with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), driving measurable impact at the grassroots level. Join us as we build a cleaner, greener, and more food-secure world - a transformation at a time.
