[SEI] Coproducing water-energy-food Nexus actionable knowledge: Lessons from a multi-actor collaborative learning school in Uganda, East Africa |
|---|---|
| Category | |
|
The water-energy-food (WEF) nexus is an integrative framework for addressing the multi-scalar interdependencies across water, energy and food systems. However, challenges linked to scale and data availability often make WEF analyses more theoretical, limiting their ability to offer practical, implementable solutions for policy and practice. This article introduces Collaborative Learning Schools (CLS) as a means to foster stakeholder engagement, cross-cultural knowledge exchange, and participatory learning for actionable policy and management solutions to water, energy and food security issues. The authors established CLS workshops in Uganda to explore WEF nexus challenges among smallholder farmers and jointly developed locally relevant actions and policy proposals that improve livelihoods while protecting land and water resources. The journal article draws from this experience to reflect on how CLS can tackle WEF nexus issues and promote sustainability and wellbeing for communities throughout the globe.
