INTRODUCTION

WORLD RESOURCES FORUM 2023

A multi-stakeholder dialogue to put Earth’s resources at the heart of the global green transition.

The governance, management and use of natural resources play a pivotal role in the global transition towards green, low-carbon and resilient economies. Such policies and processes are decisive for humankind’s ability to successfully cope with the interlinked environmental crises of climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution. Only by having in place sustainable, equitable and inclusive processes for harnessing resources, the transition can deliver distributed and long-lasting environmental, economic and social benefits.

WHAT OUR VISITOR'S SAY ?

“Accelerating the Resource Revolution is the right issue to be addressed and the WRF is the right place to be for all who care for the future of humanity.”
Janez PotocnikVISITOR
“Using our materials smarter, less and longer is key to fulfil the needs of our citizens, offer sustainable growth to our industries and preserve the resources of our planet.”
Victoire de MargerieVISITOR
“Moving towards the Sustainable Development Goals makes it imperative that we boost the resource efficiency of our global economy. We must learn to be green, clean, circular, and sharing in the way we grow.”
Doaa Abdel MotaalVISITOR
"Greatly increased resource efficiency is being increasingly recognised as an imperative for achieving both the Paris Agreement climate target and the Sustainable Development Goals. The World Resources Forum is the premier annual meeting that keeps resource efficiency in focus and builds global momentum towards putting in place the required policies to promote it."
Paul EkinsVISITOR
“In times of fake news, the WRF has reliably proven its capacity to establish, and make known, the true state of the art in research on resource use.”
Marina Fischer-KowalskiVISITOR
“A conference series that expands outside the usual comfort zone of OECD countries. Sustainable use of resources involves everyone! The WRF also brings to the table the countries whose resources are exploited.”
Ron ZevenhovenVISITOR
“The WRF conference brings together the global academic, business, policy and activist communities to analyse and reflect on the pressing environmental issues of the day. These are truly interdisciplinary and cross-sectoral gatherings. WRF is an important international agenda setter in the sustainability arena.”
Halina BrownVISITOR
“Accelerating the Resource Revolution is the right issue to be addressed and the WRF is the right place to be for all who care for the future of humanity.”
