Between the Lines Podcast | The Water–Food–Energy-Nexus

The world of development thinkers and practitioners is abuzz with a new lexicon: the idea of “the nexus” between water, food, and energy. It promises better integration of multiple sectoral elements, a better transition to greener economies, and sustainable development.

However, there appears to be little agreement on its precise meaning, whether it only complements existing environmental governance approaches or how it can be enhanced in national contexts.

In this episode of Between the Lines, IDS Fellow Shilpi Srivastava interviews Jeremy Allouche, Dipak Gyawali and Carl Middleton the editors of the book: The Water–Food–Energy Nexus: Power, Politics, and Justice.
