摘要

The food-energy-water (FEW) nexus presents a complex set of challenges as it recognizes the profound and intricate interdependence of food production, energy generation, and water resources as well as the role of people in these systems. Managing issues at this nexus and within circular bioeconomies requires a highly integrated and transdisciplinary approach to successfully frame the problem and investigate sustainable solutions. A One Health approach applies this type of systems theory at the local, regional, national, and global levels with the goal of achieving optimal health for people, animals, plants, and their shared environment. However, there often remains a disconnect between stakeholders and researchers in both the research development and research product implementation stages. To address that, we propose a complimentary framework including 3 “E”s (Earn trust, Explore fears, and Educate) and 3 “B”s (Build partnerships, develop Business models, and Bear the perceived risks) to bridge that researcher-stakeholder disconnect.
