Sustainable innovation and governance in the Mediterranean area for the WEF Nexus
Climate change and rapid population growth threaten food, water and ecosystem security in the Mediterranean region.
SIGMA-Nexus will analyze the socio-economic and technical characteristics of several case study sites in Egypt and Greece to develop the WEF (Water-Ecosystems-Food) nexus for different hydrological, agricultural and environmental settings in the Mediterranean region.
The project aims to accelerate knowledge diffusion and support decision-making that can minimize conflicts and maximize synergies of cross-institutional and sectoral management of water and land resources through participatory multi-stakeholder engagement activities.
