Abstract

This projects main aim is to examine young people's (aged 10-24) understandings, experiences and participation in the 'food-water-energy' nexus in Brazil. It focuses on this age group as older children and young adults are generally the main targets for EfS, and as they are likely to have greater capacities for engagement with and reflection on the nexus than younger children. In achieving this aim, the project will address three sets of research questions with huge potential for both academic and societal impacts… (AU)
