SPECIAL SESSION A04-1:
BIOENERGY IN THE NEXUS: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR FOOD SECURITY AND POVERTY REDUCTION

Speaker:
Alisher Mirzabaev (ZEF)


Bioenergy is a vital component of Water-Energy-Food Security (W-E-F) nexus and essential for green growth and poverty reduction. Bioenergy development has substantial impacts on global crop prices, labor and land markets, and on food security. Instead of simple trade-offs between food and fuel, a broader conceptual perspective is required for assessing bioenergy issues, taking into account the three main sustainability domains upon which bioenergy impacts, namely the social, economic and environmental domains.
This presentation seeks to review the drivers and impacts of
bioenergy production and utilization along three dimensions of sustainability, following an inter-disciplinary W-E-F nexus
approach, with a special emphasis on the livelihoods of the poor.
