The ESRC Nexus Network: Core Activities and Outputs, 2014-2018

From its launch in June 2014 through to the end of its project life in 2018, the ESRC Nexus Network worked to support transdisciplinary research at the food-water-energy-environment nexus and to create meaningful links between communities of researchers, policymakers, business leaders and practitioners. Data collated here includes records of public facing network activities such as published working papers, reports, email newsletters and workshop activities. The purpose of the Network+ was to build community through running events, interacting with decision makers, building a network and onward-funding original research. As such, the Network+ did not conduct research in a traditional sense. However, the data and documents collated here represent the substantive knowledge creation activities of the Network+ and can be considered a form of research data in themselves - which were used to iteratively build the network, influence and impact.
