[Translate to German:] Module I: Introduction to the Water-Energy-Food Security (WEF) Nexus

Introduction to the Water-Energy-Food Security (WEF) Nexus

[Translate to German:]

The first module aims at raising awareness on the interconnectedness of that water, energy and food sectors are closely interlinked and on how interventions in one can create negative externalities in other sectors (trade-offs).

[Translate to German:] Module III: Case Studies: For cross-policy making and related project design and planning

[Translate to German:]

Case studies are a powerful tool to illustrate how the Nexus is operationalised (what it looks like in practice). They help shed light on the benefits of Nexus projects as well as the challenges and solutions for implementing the nexus approach in governance systems and projects. The third module therefore presents specific Nexus experiences and examples of the five target regions as well as additional examples from Europe and Germany.

 

 


[Translate to German:] NIA Toolkit

The NIA Toolkit provides a comprehensive methodology and user-friendly tools to quantify cross-sectoral benefits in qualitative and quantitative/monetary terms (added value). It consists of four main tools, each providing a valuable contribution to the transition from ‘Nexus thinking’ to ‘Nexus doing’. The application of the toolkit is unrestricted and can therefore be applied in a variety of contexts, for example to raise awareness of the benefits of the WEF Nexus and sustainable resource management among project developers, by assisting them in project planning and implementation, or by attracting the interest of public and private donors. The tools can be used together as well as separately and enable professionals to evaluate and measure the impacts of Nexus projects, ensuring compliance with social and environmental safeguards.
