چکیده
Food-water-energy nexus is a complex problem characterized by multiple alternatives, conflicting objectives, and uncertainties about key drivers like climate change, urbanization, population growth. Serious games are becoming popular means to support decision-makers who responsible for the management of urban food, water, energy systems. However, effectiveness these in improving decision-making quality their outcomes remains low. Therefore, this paper, we developed serious game, namely S.N.O.G., which offers safe environment where impacts decisions may be tested rated. Methodologically, S.N.O.G. based on combination multi-objective optimization programing game theory. Spatial representation, forecast, automatic feedback, ease information communication, transparency, modification add competence S.N.O.G.’s application into effective food-water-energy nexus. The was smart-eco district Netherlands balanced food production, water generation goal. By using an activity theory-based model, evaluated mapped how contributes advancement decision-making. Our research shows helped participants identify indicate integrated resource management, can strengthen learning policy outcomes.

Multi-Stakeholder Development of a Serious Game to Explore the Water-Energy-Food-Land-Climate Nexus: The SIM4NEXUS Approach
Water, energy, food, land and climate form a tightly-connected nexus in which actions on one sector impact other sectors, creating feedbacks and unanticipated consequences. This is especially because at present, much scientific research and many policies are constrained to single discipline/sector silos that are often not interacting (e.g., water-related research/policy). However, experimenting...
متن کاملThe nexus of food, energy, and water.
The Earth's population is expected to exceed 9 billion by 2050, posing significant challenges in meeting human needs while minimally affecting the environment. To support this population, we will need secure and safe sources of food, energy, and water. The nexus of food, energy, and water is one of the most complex, yet critical, issues that face society. There is no more land to exploit, and t...
