This book, as a part of a series of CERES publications, provides a
multi-regional and cross-sectoral analysis of food and water
security, especially in the era of climate risks, biodiversity
loss, pressure on scarce resources, especially land and water,
increasing global population, and changing dietary preferences. It
includes both conceptual research and empirically-based studies,
which provides context-specific analyses and recommendations based
on a variety of case studies from Africa, Middle East, and Asia
regarding the fostering of long-term resilience of food and water
security. The core approach of the volume consists of: assessing
the structural drivers affecting the vulnerability of food and
water security, under the persistence of current trends;
identifying the best solutions and practices to enhance the climate
resilience for food and water security; and fostering climate
adaptation and biodiversity protection for food and water security.
This book contributes to the multidisciplinary debate about
social-ecological systems (SES) within the perspective of
rethinking the nature of interaction between these systems,
especially in the Anthropocene Era. Most chapters either deliberate
on risk dynamics threatening current SES or stimulate thought
processes to manage such risks and related negative implications.
After analyzing the main drivers of SES vulnerability, the book
highlights the shifts to be made to enhance the sustainability and
resilience of these systems, mainly the integration and
restructuring of governance frameworks, the reorganization of
production and consumption systems far from conventional models
based on consumerism, the elaboration of mitigation, adaptation,
and SDGs implementation measures from a co-benefit perspective, and
the consideration of appropriate approaches and paradigms while
elaborating and implementing response mechanisms. This volume is
relevant to researchers/experts, students, practitioners, and
decision-makers from different scales and spheres.
