The Task Force on the Water-Food-Energy-Ecosystems Nexus is an expert body that supports the implementation of the nexus approach to integrated resource management, recognizing the interdependence of water, food, energy, and ecosystems. The Task Force brings together policy makers, technical experts, researchers, and international organizations to strengthen cross-sectoral cooperation and sustainable decision-making.
Through technical discussions, assessments, guidance development, and capacity-building activities, the Task Force promotes solutions that balance competing resource demands while protecting ecosystems. Its work addresses challenges such as climate change impacts, resource scarcity, transboundary cooperation, and sustainable development planning.
By advancing coordinated policies and evidence-based approaches, the Task Force on the Water-Food-Energy-Ecosystems Nexus contributes to resilient resource systems, improved governance, and progress toward the UN Sustainable Development Goals, particularly those related to water, energy, food security, and environmental protection.
