DAFNE: Use of a Decision-Analytic Framework to explore the WEF NExus in complex & trans-boundary water resources systems of fast growing developing countries Project funded by the Horizon 2020 program of the European Union, GA no. 690268. Started on 2016, 14 partners (6 European, 4 African & 1 Asian countries) The project entails 8 work packages with 31 deliverables Background Compilation of data to characterize the hydrologic, engineering developments, social systems, economic systems, and terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems Definition of the objectives of infrastructure & agricultural expansion Identification of stakeholders & their concerns, needs, expectations, & their knowledge Identification & assessment of robust water management alternatives, or temporal sequences thereof (pathways) Hydrological processes and sediment yield modelling Ecosystem service modeling (water yield, hydropower potential, water purification & sediment retention) Description of Work packages & Deliverables Global trends in population growth & economic prosperity increases the demand for water, energy, & food (WEF), with more severe impact in fast-growing economies. The constraints on WEF could well hamper economic development, lead to social & geopolitical tensions, & cause lasting environmental damage. DAFNE advocates an integrated & adaptive water resources planning & management approach that explicitly addresses the WEF nexus from a novel participatory & multidisciplinary perspective. This includes social, economic, & ecologic dimensions, involves both public & private actors enhances resource efficiency & prevents the loss of ecosystem services in regions where large infrastructures exist or being built & intensive agriculture is expanding.
