This session gave the opportunity to those who attended the workshop to discuss the main challenges of the basin, providing examples of how decision made in one sector can influence those in other sectors and exchange views on the CLEWs framework, its usefulness and applicability. Gardumi continued with a short introduction to existing Nexus assessment methodologies and to CLEWs in a plenary presentation.Ī Q&A session followed whereby participants expressed their expectations regarding CLEWs and their perceptions of Nexus challenges in the Drina River Basin.
Francesco Gardumi, KTH Royal Institute of Technology. Tassos Krommydas, Senior Programme Officer, GWP-Med and Dr. The welcoming session included a round of table to introduce the participants and their expectations by Mr. The first day of the Workshop was aimed at a broad audience. The current article presents the Workshop’s key take outs and provides a summary of the Workshop’s proceedings. These conditions include for instance changing climate and non-hydro renewable power development. Within the Nexus Assessment of the Drina River Basin under the ADA-funded “SEE Nexus Project”, the component of the CLEWs framework focusing on Energy and Water was used to quantify benefits of cross-boundary cooperation in the management of the cascaded hydropower systems of the Drina under several conditions. It has been largely employed to support the design of national and regional cross-sectoral policy packages for climate change adaptation and mitigation. It was developed in the past decade by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the United Nations Department for Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA), the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), KTH and many other partners. The Climate-Land-Energy-Water (CLEWs) framework is a modelling tool for quantitative analysis of the Nexus between the biophysical systems of climate, land (including agriculture), energy and water. By providing an overview of general concepts, tools used and hands-on experience on model building, the workshop opened the box of the modelling analysis to the audience and laid the ground for local uptake of the model infrastructure. The purpose of the workshop was to familiarise participants with the Climate, Land, Energy and Water systems (CLEWs) nexus methodology, used to quantitatively assess the energy-water interlinkages within the Nexus assessment of the Drina River Basin. Workshop-Introduction to the Climate-Land-Energy-Water (CLEWs) modelling framework and its use in the Nexus Assessment of the Drina River BasinĪ two-day workshop on the Climate-Land-Energy-Water (CLEWs) modelling framework and its use in the Nexus Assessment of the Drina River Basin took place on 8,9 July 2021.
