09 June 2014 - The Nexus Network, launched on Monday 9 June, offers business the opportunity, for the first time, to design and deliver research by embracing science in all its manifestations – social and natural – to ensure the sustainable management and secure supply of natural capital, including energy, food and water.
The Nexus Network, led by the University of Sussex, in partnership with the University of East Anglia and CISL, will foster debate, innovative research and practical collaborations across the linked domains of food, energy, water and the environment. Participation in the network is open to those with an interest in these debates. Please join by signing up at thenexusnetwork.org.uk/join.
"While business is becoming increasingly aware of the importance of natural capital, there is an urgent call to explore not only natural capital elements themselves but also the connections between them. In an era of growing resource pressures, The Nexus Network will play a crucial role in identifying system-level responses to protecting livelihoods and natural resources. Our business networks will bring a distinctive, pragmatic perspective to nexus challenges."
