Event Description : 'Trialogue 2047: Food Security: The Big Question of Resources' panel discussion.
Synopsis: India’s population is projected to reach 1.6 billion by 2050, thus requiring India to produce more food, water, energy and shelter. It is of highest priority for India to ensure secure access to food by every one of its citizens, now and for the future. Climate change, resource constraints, distribution and storage are some concerns that threaten India’s food security. With increasing population and socio-economic developmental needs, access and availability of resources for food production shall be constrained. Water-Energy-Food Nexus is an interesting way of making judicious decisions for resource distribution. It provides an integrated view and comprehensive information on relative resource scarcity and productivity, and on the potential for resource intensification in different regions. It also points to the opportunities and synergies for increasing total resource use efficiency, and possibly also substitutions between resources. Through this trialogue 2047 we aim to explore the implications of this nexus in context to India and what are the synergies or trade-offs India can make with respect to resource use to ensure food security for all.
