This Water–Energy–Food Nexus session examines interdependencies and synergies among water, energy, and food systems. Topics include water use in energy production, energy requirements for water treatment and desalination, and energy inputs in agriculture and food processing. Contributions may present integrated models, optimization frameworks, and policy analyses that balance competing demands under resource constraints and climate stressors. The session welcomes case studies at local, regional, and national scales, highlighting governance arrangements, technological interventions, and infrastructure planning. Particular interest lies in solutions that improve resource efficiency, enhance resilience, and reduce environmental impacts while maintaining food security and equitable access.
