Event UNDERSTANDING THE WATER-ENERGY-FOOD NEXUS

Understanding the Water-Energy-Food Nexus and its Implications for Governance
Scientific Forum, 15.-16.06.2016 Osnabrück, Germany

Water, food and energy security are inter-related, but these linkages are seldom understood and even less often acted upon in the development of governance strategies. The relevance of the connections between them for securing basic services under conditions of change and the functioning of ecosystems has not been explored systematically. As a result, siloed strategies continue to prevail, degrading and wasting natural resources, reproducing unequal access, with adverse, long-term impacts on the environment and reduced socio-ecological resilience.
