The Energy and Water Agency (EWA) recently launched the stakeholder engagement process for the RETOUCH Nexus project with a successful breakfast meeting on 8 March 2024.
This engagement activity marked the start of a series of discussions aimed at addressing the challenges stakeholders face in adopting Nexus-friendly policies. The objective was to develop a comprehensive outreach strategy that would consider the concerns and perspectives of a diverse range of participants.
This event brought together stakeholders from various sectors, including education, NGOs, agriculture, and engineering. The discussions focused on finding the best ways to communicate the WEFE (Water-Energy-Food-Ecosystems) Nexus concept to water users, with the aim of fostering more sustainable water management practices.
These engagements have successfully promoted dialogue and collaboration, paving the way for more integrated and effective water management strategies.
