Nexus Environment Policy
Hello, I would like to ask if any of you have encountered the term Nexus Environment Policy.
The text I am translating uses it at "environment nexus" however I am not sure how to translate it to Spanish. As per my understanding, it is not only a "Politica de Medioambiente" the word Nexus seems to be a movement that defines the multi-dimensional interlinkages between water, energy, food and ecosystems....
Appreciate your help. Maybe "Politica de Medio Ambiente" is correct and should be that one but, does not feel that accurate...Thanks in advance
The ST: 'She currently serves as Programme Coordinator for the Environmental Governance Programme (EGP), the Sida-funded programme that aims to advance the human rights and environment nexus by strengthening the environmental governance of the mining sector, ultimately advancing multiple Sustainable Development Goals.'

The Nexus Methodology
Water, energy, food and ecosystems are so strongly interlinked that actions in one sector will impact the other. Taking the interlinkages into account can help to make resource management more sustainable, reduce negative intersectoral or environmental impacts and to make policies more coherent. A set of assessments of the water-food-energy-ecosystems nexus have been carried out in several transboundary river basins using a methodology developed for the purpose under the Water Convention.

A definition from the perspective of UNU-FLORES
“The Nexus Approach to environmental resources management examines the interrelatedness and interdependencies of environmental resources and their transitions and fluxes across spatial scales and between compartments. Instead of just looking at individual components, the functioning, productivity, and management of a complex system is taken into consideration.”
________________________________________
The term “Nexus” in Latin describes the act of tying together or something which binds. In connection with environmental resource management, the term nexus was introduced for the first time during the 1980s, notably in a project by the UN University (Food-Energy Nexus programme, (Sachs and Silk 1990)). Yet the Nexus Approach only gained prominence in international academia and policy circles in the lead-up to the Bonn2011 conference on the “Water, Energy and Food Security Nexus”.

"Nexus" is being used as a proper noun here.

Discussion
The Swedish Environmental Protection Agency and the United Nations Development Programme launched in 2014 the Environmental Governance Programme (EGP) for Sustainable Natural Resource Management, focusing on the mining sector. It draws upon the combined governance, environmental and extractive sector expertise of the two agencies and their partners to support countries to integrate environment and human rights into the governance of the mining sector.
Using the ***nexus between the environment and human rights as a lens, the EGP *** takes an integrated approach to sustainable natural resource management, that focuses on addressing the drivers of conflict, environmental degradation, inequality, exclusion, and poverty simultaneously.
The EGP is fully funded by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency.

However, there are also some entries (not too many, just 16) using "Environment" and not "Environmental". Odd...
New doubt: Where does it read in the text "nexus environment policy" (your headline)? I can only read "environment nexus by strengthening (...)". In my view, your question is misleading.
