ABSTRACT

Few studies have examined the critical role of policy and network governance mechanism in addressing sustainability and FEW nexuses. This study aims to examine the efforts in meeting the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at the urban environment. More specifically, the study seeks to examine how growing demands on the food-energy-water (FEW) nexuses can be met through partnerships in dense urban areas as population growth and human migration continue to accelerate in metropolitan areas worldwide. The goal of the article is to address the role of multi-stakeholder partnership in the successful implementation of FEW nexus projects. The study highlights how FEW nexus projects can improve urban sustainability and equity with the aid of stakeholder involvement. The study contributes how FEW nexus projects can improve urban sustainability with stakeholder engagement with varying degrees of partnerships with public, private, and nonprofit sector organizations in both policy and governance.

摘要

很少有研究考察政策和网络治理机制在解决可持续性和 FEW 关系方面的关键作用。本研究旨在审查在城市环境中实现联合国可持续发展目标 (SDG) 的努力。更具体地说，该研究旨在研究随着人口增长和人口迁移在全球大都市地区继续加速，如何通过密集城市地区的伙伴关系满足对食物-能源-水 (FEW) 关系不断增长的需求。本文的目标是解决多方利益相关者伙伴关系在成功实施 FEW 关联项目中的作用。该研究强调了 FEW 关联项目如何在利益相关者参与的帮助下改善城市的可持续性和公平性。
