CGIAR Initiative on NEXUS Gains
Influencing policy in global resource management
Scriptoria led external communications for NEXUS Gains to drive engagement, amplify research and enhance policy influence. Operating across 14 countries and valued at US$20 million, NEXUS Gains aimed to improve the integrated management of resources across the water–energy–food–environment (WEFE) nexus to achieve inclusive, sustainable development.
Timeframe: 2022–2024
Strategic communications in practice
Our approach
Scriptoria developed and implemented a communications strategy for the initiative, which included promoting solutions through digital and social media content, and producing a successful webinar series. We also helped researchers to translate their work into accessible materials including learning modules, blogs and impact stories.
Impact
Our work raised awareness of decision-support tools to help governments and investors address trade-offs and synergies across interlocking sectors. It also helped to promote nexus solutions at key global events such as the United Nations climate change conferences (COPs).
