Stepping Up: What will it take to accelerate a step-change in sustainability for water, energy and food?

Videos

A selection of short videos from the project

 

Our project has involved both quantitative and qualitative data analysis including workshops and interviews. One of these workshops included bringing together a broader community of LWEC researchers to share our work across a variety of disparate disciplines. Some of the presentations from that workshop, and those relating to other aspects of the Stepping Up project, as well as project reports and papers can be found below.

  • Understanding the future of the WEF nexus Hoolohan 17.1.19

    In what ways will society, technology and climate of the UK WEF nexus change by 2050? What are the implications for nexus-innovations? How do these changes affect the rate, scale and efficacy of innovation deployment? What can we learn about how to accelerate the scaling up of nexus-innovations?

    This presentation reports the findings of Stepping Up's investigation of future water-energy-food scenarios.
