What are key issues of the Food-Water-Energy Nexus in a rapidly urbanizing region in India? We co-created 22 PSIR challenges and translated them into a conceptual systems model to evaluate responses

6) It's a work in progress. We certainly don't have all the answers. If we work to center equity, in big ways or small, as a regular, iterative part of our engineering practice, we can advance our field together. What are your suggestions?

[Sarah Fletcher @SFletcherH2O]

5) Transparency and visualization help. Exploratory modeling approaches that focus on illuminating tradeoffs across a range of indicators rather than prescribing solutions can make your model more accessible and include diverse framings

[Sarah Fletcher @SFletcherH2O]

4) Advance methodological modeling gaps. For example, many models require finer spatial and temporal resolution to assess outcomes for marginalized communities. This can be a great way to contribute without participatory modeling; just be clear that your focus is methodological

[Sarah Fletcher @SFletcherH2O]

3) Design performance metrics with care. Many common measures of inequality in decision-support modeling, like the Gini index, aren't focused on the interests of marginalized communities. Exploring multiple metrics can prevent over-reliance on an imperfect metric

[Sarah Fletcher @SFletcherH2O]

2) As engineers, we should draw on the expertise of social scientists and EJ scholars. We're not experts in defining what equity means, and we don't have to be! Our job is to operationalize concepts of equity in engineering models and solutions. Collaboration can help.

[Sarah Fletcher @SFletcherH2O]

1) Consider the audience your model serves. Participatory modeling with diverse stakeholders can give marginalized communities a voice in decision processes and improve distributional equity through embedding community values in the model design, but must be done with care.

Excited to share our new paper "Equity in Water Resources Planning: A Path Forward for Decision Support Modelers" in JWRPM. We make recommendations for the process and design of decision-support modeling: 🧵1/n https://t.co/eugG3V1fK7

India is the 2nd largest producer of sugarcane globally, and sugarcane maps are needed to understand how cultivation affects freshwater resources and food security. Our paper on mapping sugarcane at 10m resolution, led by Ju Young Lee, is now in Remote Sensing.
