AI-generated Abstract

The interconnectedness of water, energy, and environmental policies constitutes a complex nexus that necessitates a multisectoral and multistakeholder governance approach. This chapter discusses theoretical perspectives on the nexus, examining diverse studies across various disciplines, and highlights the importance of integrated policy-making for sustainable water management and optimal energy production. A comparative analysis of the water-energy-food nexuses in Central Asia, South Asia, and Southeast Asia is conducted to demonstrate the practical implications and challenges of these integrated approaches.
