Freising, Germany – 21 October 2026<\/em><\/p>\n

After years of research, modelling and collaboration across Europe, <\/span>RETOUCH NEXUS is reaching its final stage<\/span><\/strong>. On <\/span>21 October 2026<\/span><\/strong>, the project will bring together partners, policymakers and stakeholders in <\/span>Freising, Germany and online<\/span><\/strong> for its Final Conference.<\/span><\/p>\n

Taking place from <\/span>13:00 to 14:30 CEST<\/span><\/strong>, the event will present key results and insights from the project, with a particular focus on how modelling approaches can support more integrated water governance across the <\/span>Water-Energy-Food-Ecosystems (WEFE) Nexus<\/span><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”5138c454-be54-4233-bd3b-f8e6a8747976″ width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”73121f80-a3ef-4484-8763-c3f18e3c56d2″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text quote_border_color=”#ffc300″ _builder_version=”4.27.9″ _module_preset=”2c55a9c4-feed-423b-9edb-ae0b5b365cac” text_font=”–et_global_body_font|Proza Libre_weight|||||||” text_line_height=”1.75em” link_font=”|Proza Libre_weight|||||||” link_text_color=”#003566″ quote_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” quote_text_color=”#0e0c19″ header_font=”–et_global_heading_font|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_text_color=”#0e0c19″ header_font_size=”72px” header_line_height=”1.15em” header_2_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#0e0c19″ header_2_font_size=”50px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” header_3_font=”–et_global_heading_font|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_3_text_color=”#0e0c19″ header_3_font_size=”32px” header_3_line_height=”1.3em” header_4_font=”–et_global_heading_font|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_4_text_color=”#0e0c19″ header_4_font_size=”24px” header_4_line_height=”1.4em” header_5_font=”–et_global_heading_font|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_5_text_color=”#0e0c19″ header_5_font_size=”18px” header_5_line_height=”1.4em” header_6_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_6_text_color=”#0e0c19″ header_6_line_height=”1.5em” custom_margin=”||||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ text_font_size_tablet=”15px” text_font_size_phone=”14px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_font_size_tablet=”40px” header_font_size_phone=”24px” header_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_2_font_size_tablet=”28px” header_2_font_size_phone=”20px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_3_font_size_tablet=”22px” header_3_font_size_phone=”17px” header_3_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_4_font_size_tablet=”18px” header_4_font_size_phone=”15px” header_4_font_size_last_edited=”on|tablet” header_5_font_size_tablet=”15px” header_5_font_size_phone=”14px” header_5_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_6_font_size_tablet=”13px” header_6_font_size_phone=”13px” header_6_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]

From modelling to practice<\/strong><\/h5>\n

The conference will open with an introduction to the event and an overview of the work carried out within RETOUCH NEXUS. <\/span>Participants will then discover the <\/span>modelling approaches developed within the project<\/span><\/strong>, before exploring how these approaches have been applied in practice through the RETOUCH NEXUS case studies. Insights from the <\/span>German, Spanish, Belgian and Maltese case studies<\/span><\/strong> will illustrate how modelling and Nexus-based approaches can help address complex water governance challenges in different contexts. <\/span>The programme will then turn towards the <\/span>policy dimension<\/span><\/strong>, examining how modelling results can be translated into concrete policy recommendations.<\/span><\/p>\n

The conference will conclude with an open <\/span>discussion and closing messages<\/span><\/strong>, offering participants the opportunity to reflect on the project’s results and their potential contribution to future water governance.<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”73121f80-a3ef-4484-8763-c3f18e3c56d2″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text quote_border_color=”#ffc300″ _builder_version=”4.27.9″ _module_preset=”2c55a9c4-feed-423b-9edb-ae0b5b365cac” text_font=”–et_global_body_font|Proza Libre_weight|||||||” text_line_height=”1.75em” link_font=”|Proza Libre_weight|||||||” link_text_color=”#003566″ quote_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” quote_text_color=”#0e0c19″ header_font=”–et_global_heading_font|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_text_color=”#0e0c19″ header_font_size=”72px” header_line_height=”1.15em” header_2_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#0e0c19″ header_2_font_size=”50px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” header_3_font=”–et_global_heading_font|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_3_text_color=”#0e0c19″ header_3_font_size=”32px” header_3_line_height=”1.3em” header_4_font=”–et_global_heading_font|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_4_text_color=”#0e0c19″ header_4_font_size=”24px” header_4_line_height=”1.4em” header_5_font=”–et_global_heading_font|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_5_text_color=”#0e0c19″ header_5_font_size=”18px” header_5_line_height=”1.4em” header_6_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_6_text_color=”#0e0c19″ header_6_line_height=”1.5em” custom_margin=”||||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ text_font_size_tablet=”15px” text_font_size_phone=”14px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_font_size_tablet=”40px” header_font_size_phone=”24px” header_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_2_font_size_tablet=”28px” header_2_font_size_phone=”20px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_3_font_size_tablet=”22px” header_3_font_size_phone=”17px” header_3_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_4_font_size_tablet=”18px” header_4_font_size_phone=”15px” header_4_font_size_last_edited=”on|tablet” header_5_font_size_tablet=”15px” header_5_font_size_phone=”14px” header_5_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_6_font_size_tablet=”13px” header_6_font_size_phone=”13px” header_6_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]
