This project brochure describes an initiative funded by FONERWA and coordinated by ARCOS, in collaboration with the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) and other partners, to promote climate resilience in the Akagera Basin of Rwanda. Running from October 1, 2015, to September 30, 2018, the project uses a 'Water-Energy-Food Security Nexus' approach to analyze the interdependencies between these sectors to guide sustainable development and policy decisions.

• The project aims to provide evidence-based policy guidance and promote local actions for climate resilience and sustainable development in the Akagera Basin, specifically focusing on the food, energy, and environment nexus to identify sustainable development pathways for national and local investments.
• The project's expected outcomes include the production of 25 high-level technical reports and policy briefs to guide planning in the districts of Rutsiro, Ngororero, Bugesera, and Kirehe, as well as the empowerment of over 15 Nature Based Community Enterprises (NBCEs) and support for over 800 people in sustainable practices.
• The project employs a four-part methodology: Integrated Landscape Assessment and Monitoring (ILAM) focusing on biodiversity and socio-economics; the use of SEI's Water Evaluation and Planning (WEAP) and Long-range Energy Alternatives Planning (LEAP) tools to analyze the Water-Energy-Food Nexus; the creation of a stakeholder dialogue platform for advocacy; and the establishment of sustainable Nature-Based Community Enterprises as demonstration models.
• The project addresses the increasing competition for water in the Akagera Basin, where the resource is being exploited for irrigation, hydropower, and water supply for industries and major towns, which may lead to the depletion of essential services as the population grows.
