 * Best practices
 The evaluation of design solutions is a tricky issue. There exists a long list of indicators to assess the impact of human activities on the environment, such as the most typical ones, food mileage (f), CO2 emissions (e), virtual water use (w) and EF(Ecological Footprint) etc. However, no such an indicator could properly describe the interaction of food, energy and water. EF[Wackernagel & Rees, 1998] converts the CO2 emission in human consumption to land area equivalent to the area of forest demanded for absorbing the correspondent emission.
 * M-NEX Guidline
 M-NEX proposes an indicator few-print which express the quantity of FEW resources to be consumed and the flow, that is, the service among the three layers. The few-print is a combination of food mileage (f), CO2 emissions (e), virtual water use (w). It also represents the ambition of nexus thinking, creating more with less.

 * Site description
-Qatar has limited water resources; the climate is too hot and dry for much agriculture; dust storms are a serious threat. It has the highest per capita emissions of carbon dioxide in the world because of free electricity and the reliance on energy-intensive desalination for potable water. Qatar is extremely vulnerable to rising sea levels and rising temperatures due to climate change. A recent embargo by neighboring states including Saudi Arabia, a major food supplier of Qatar, has heightened the necessity for more efficient and resiliant food systems and supplies. The Living Lab in Qatar will be built on the existing Edible and Regenerative Campus project as well as on ongoing research and networks at Qatar University related to the FEW-nexus such as new food crops, halophytes and micro algae and reuse of water etc.- under the theme of the "The Urban Water Machine" with the engagement of all the University communities.
