The EEAC network is a unique collaboration between the councils set up by European governments to provide independent and scientifically based advice on the environment and sustainable development. The network is a powerful tool for sharing information and experience across Europe.
The aim of the WRR is to advise the government about future developments of great public interest using a scientific approach. The government can use these advisory opinions in order to readjust existing policy, or to develop new policy or as support for decision making. The Council also tries to stimulate scientific debate. In this way, the WRR forms a bridge between scientific expertise and policy.
