    Abstract : The last decade has seen the emergence of a new research theme - the study of the resources Nexus. The “Nexus” refers to considering the functioning of several systems simultaneously, as opposed to one, as the object of research. This perspective reasons that coherent decision-making needs to consider systems' interconnectedness. READ MORE

  6. 4. Experimenting with sustainability transformations: A study of Urban Living Labs in the food, water and energy nexus

    Author : Darin Wahl; LUCSUS; []
