The emergence and boundaries of the water-energy-food nexus in development cooperation

Since decades, improvements in the water, energy and agricultural sector play a significant role in international development cooperation and thereby, the integration of water-energy-food nexus approaches becomes highly relevant to mitigate or prevent adverse impacts of sector-specific projects on other sectors. Against this background, the dissertation project aims at analysing the emergence and boundaries of such nexus approaches as part of sustainability concepts of selected stakeholders in international development cooperation by assessing the understanding, critical reflection and diverging perceptions and/ or different implementation approaches of water, food and/or energy related projects/ strategies.
