ANMO
Cette pénurie d'eau et la récente instabilité économique ont rendu sa population encore plus vulnérable à l'insécurité alimentaire.
La production d'énergie dans la région dépend encore fortement des combustibles fossiles, même s'il existe un fort potentiel d'énergies renouvelables et que 30 millions de personnes dans la région arabe n'ont toujours pas accès à l'électricité. En outre, ces pays sont très vulnérables aux conséquences du changement climatique.
Pour répondre aux exigences élevées de la région ANMO, il faut comprendre les synergies, les conflits et les compensations qui relient l'eau, l'énergie et l'alimentation aux écosystèmes.
Parmi les différents intersectoriels du NEXUS, des solutions holistiques sont proposées :
• les systèmes d'irrigation à l'énergie solaire
• le dessalement solaire
• l'énergie solaire pour le traitement et la réutilisation des eaux usées
• des investissements dans les biocarburants et l'agriculture offshore pour assurer la sécurité alimentaire et préserver les rares ressources en eau.
Dans la région, on reconnaît de plus en plus la nécessité d'adopter l'approche Nexus, encouragée par plusieurs ministères et institutions internationales.
