Introduction

The security in water, food and energy sectors is the fundamental requirement to human life and the development of a society. The water, food and energy security nexus means that these three sectors are closely liked, and that actions in one area more often than not have impacts on one or both of the others.

Furthermore, the rapid economic growth together with a quick wave of urbanization in Asia has caused huge and visible pressure on infrastructure, particularly the urban infrastructure. Infrastructure such as energy, transport and water is improving, but has not been able to cope with the needs that have been created. All these turn out to be challenges that would have to be addressed properly and urgently.

On the first day of the workshop, knowledge on the water-food-energy security nexus will be shared. On the second day of the workshop, the theory and methodology for the development of AWDO III will be discussed.

简介

水、食物、能源安全是人类生活和社会发展的基本需求。水、食物、能源三个部门紧密相连，在一个部门的行为大多会影响到其他部门。

近来，亚洲高速经济发展和城市化进程已经给基础设施，尤其是城市基础设施带来了巨大的压力。像能源、运输、水等部门的基础设施有所提升，但还是不能满足现在发展的需求。所有这些问题现在都是我们要紧急面对的挑战性问题。

研讨会的第一天水、食物、能源综合议题将被讨论，第二天主要探讨第三版亚洲水发展展望的方法论。
