Insights into integrated natural resource management with examples from Kenya and Uganda. Population and economic growth in Kenya and Uganda have led to a growing demand for food, water and energy. To meet this demand, production of these goods is enhanced, leading to increasing pressure on natural resources like land, soils and rivers. A concept that points out the complex interrelations between water, energy and food security, and aims at exploring how to sustainably manage these natural resources, is the nexus-approach.

To build up a sound knowledge base and sufficient capacities for designing and implementing integrated resource management schemes and policies as claimed by this approach, different disciplines must be involved. APPEAR in practice invites you to the presentation and discussion of the results of the APPEAR project Capacity building on the water-energy-food security nexus through research and training in Kenya and Uganda/CapNex.
