The WRF conference is hereby an independent, international expert platform to discuss the economic and political implications of the current resource use trends, and to promote and facilitate innovation for resource productivity by building bridges between scientists, researchers and consultants (supply side) and policymakers, business, NGO’s, media and the public (demand side).
