Achieving water, energy and food (WEF) security is a priority for southern Africa and the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, especially under unfavourable climate change, increasing urbanisation, population growth, and advanced ecosystems degradation.

Today, the WRC and partners are.prpud to be hosting the week-long training for the SADC region.

Participants in the WEF Nexus Winter School Training are today visiting the ARC South Africa 🇿🇦 Hydroponics, ARC Vegetable, Industrial, and Medicinal Plants. They will get to see firsthand the hydroponics plant and how the plant is run.

Happening this week from 14 to 18 August 2023, at the Future Africa Platform, University of Pretoria is the Water, Energy, and Food Nexus Winter School second in- person edition. In attendance are 36 early career researchers, postgraduate students, managers, and practitioners.

The focus is on understanding the #WEF #Nexus as a transformative approach to #sustainable #natural resources management and socio-economic development.

Participants will improve their knowledge of the #WEF #Nexus and get acquainted with the concept, how to facilitate discourse and new frameworks, tools and methods for analysing the WEF Nexus.
