Nexus 2014: Water, Food, Climate and Energy Conference

5th-8th March 2014. North Carolina, USA. Nexus 2014: Water, Food, Climate and Energy Conference. The Nexus Conference brought together leaders in business, government, NGOs and research to discuss innovative and sustainable solutions that address the intersection of the world’s water, food, and energy needs and use in a changing climate.

The Conference comprised a variety of panel discussions, interactive and networking sessions, and research presentations aimed at increasing the dialog around Nexus issues.

One of the primary goals of the Nexus 2014: Water, Food, Climate and Energy Conference was to provide input to the UN Sustainable Development Goals process. To do so a group of experts has prepared a draft of the Nexus Declaration. We are seeking feedback on the Declaration and welcome comments. To learn more about the Declaration click here.
