4.5 Implementation Plans for Water Climate Food Nexus
4.5.1 Indicators for Monitoring and Evaluations
Climate protection and adaptation to the impacts of climate change in water and agricultural sectors are among the biggest challenges for sustainable development. Industrialized countries have therefore committed themselves to provide USD 100 billion
per year for mitigation and adaptation measures in developing countries, starting in
2020. With increasing volumes of adaptation finance, and growing numbers of adaptation activities and strategies at the national level, the need for robust monitoring
and evaluation (M&E) approaches is growing alike. Indeed, it is important not just
to secure sufficient financial resources but to ensure that investment in adaptation to
climate change at these sectors actually contributes to climate resilient sustainable
development.
Therefore Conducting the WCF nexus approach need to monitor and evaluate
some interlinked Indicators based related nexus sectors and their plans. Table 5
illustrates some indicators to be monitor and evaluate for Climate impact, climate
parameters, adaptive action and their results in Water resources and agricultural
sectors regarding to the possible climate impacts to meet the target result.
These items are considered the highest important socio-economic and environmental indicators which are direct related to Agriculture, climate and water
projects.
5 Conclusion and Recommendation
5.1 Conclusions
Green sustainable development (GSD) is one of the most valuable goal that everybody
looking forward. It is clear that the Nexus approach is very important issue toward
meeting this goal. Meanwhile Water–Climate–food nexus approach is supporting
GSD. This will happen by applying sectorial interrelationships for these areas. whatever, it is essential need to defined the measures, instruments, tools, communicate,
coordinate and implementing plan between those sectors and put it throw the national
mainstream policy for sustainable development. In this context, Egypt has taken many
steps as presented in this chapter at international and National levels for achieving
these goals but there are still some challenges. Lack of public awareness and communication between private, governmental, and non-governmental sectors are major
challenges. Meanwhile increasing knowledge and public awareness could be powerful instruments in supporting policy change towards a more integrated WCF-nexus
perspective.
