Abstract

This chapter assesses the ways in which a nexus approach to water-energy-food (WEF) resource management could fulfil the international community’s goals of long-term peace and stability. Considering the factors that catalyse conflict, this chapter will explore how a nexus approach incentivizes cooperation, policy coherency, and resource optimisation at domestic, regional, and international levels. This chapter will also explore the significance of regional dialogue (or lack thereof) in impacting the future prosperity of local populations.
