Us and our motivation

We focus on:

We face an urgent challenge: the decrease of pollinators and inequality in access to green spaces. Through the Nektli project we seek to reverse this situation by creating the Retoñando Vida program. This program offers pollinator and food gardens for both bees and the community, promoting social and environmental justice.

Our project focuses on species and ecosystem diversity

Thinking globally & Acting locally by removing concrete. Its benefits are immediate: reducing the heat island effect and allowing water availability!

Solutions

With a diverse team covering three continents and a wide spectrum of social, technological, and environmental knowledge areas, we’ve come up with a three part solution:

Solar Panel

Data-based decision-making

We’ve put together an open source solution that monitors temperature, light, moisture, weight and bee counting to enhance both gardening and beekeeping with data-based decision-making. Our goal is to turn data into knowledge that can transform into value for you or your company.





Make it smart
Solar Panel

Regeneration

Adopt a productive pollinator garden to support the preservation and expansion of biodiversive oases within the city, and gain access to natural products as well as to a series of benefits tailored to the support pack you choose.





Pollinate the future
Solar Panel

Social impact

By adopting a garden or a hive you gain access to trainings and experiences for your family, school, collective or company that directly contributes to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals 4, 11, 12, 13, 15, and 17.

Data-based decision making

Keep updated with the metrics we’ve set up for turning data into knowledge, and this one to value for enhancing the production and health of urban-based oases


Our smart beehive solution features a comprehensive dashboard that consolidates data from all sensors, offering a detailed overview of hive and garden conditions. The data is compressed on the microcontroller into data packets that are as compact as possible and then sent by the microcontroller via LoRa-WAN and received by one or more gateways. These gateways send the data on to a server. On the server’s side, the data packets are brought back to the correct units.


This platform centralizes metrics including temperature, bee counts, weight, moisture, and light levels. It enables gardeners and beekeepers to monitor and manage remotely, detect issues such as diseases or environmental stressors early, and make data-driven decisions. Additionally, this dashboard serves as a valuable resource for educational and research purposes, advancing our understanding of beekeeping and urban greening.

Together, we plant the future we dream of

Retoñando Vida is more than an initiative, it is a call to take our communities to revitalize our urban spaces.

We can build greener cities, inspire future generations and create a world where nature and people flourish in perfect harmony.
