Managing Resources for Sustainable Development

West African countries are faced with ever-increasing demands for food, water and energy, a challenge compounded by climate change. The region is confronted with significant challenges in the way it manages and utilizes water, energy, and food. Isolated management of these resources creates barriers to harnessing the benefits of the nexus approach. These benefits include enhancing water, energy, and food security by increasing efficiency, reducing trade-offs, building synergies, and improving governance across the sectors.
