Abstract: This article assesses the role of payments for hydrological ecosystem services for integrated water resources management within the water-energy-food nexus. Current challenges of implementation are structured according to spatial fit and institutional interplay. An empirical analysis of several case studies of locally self-organized payments for hydrological ecosystem services in Nicaragua reveals potential contributions to operationalization of integrated water resources management and the water-energy-food nexus.
