PolRess - Ressourcenpolitik
Published on
The project aims at supporting and stimulating the emerging political and social debate on resource policies from a political science, legal and economic perspective. For this purpose the discussion on targets and indicators will be analyzed and options identified for selecting, operationalizing and prioritizing targets on resource policy.Moreover, specific policy instruments that may potentially be employed to increase resource efficiency and resource conservation will be assessed. Qualitative scenarios will be developed and quantitative simulations conducted.In addition, scientifically grounded contributions – above all on the potentials and chances of accelerating resource efficiency – will be published in order to stimulate the public debate.Finally, networking activities with other research projects and actors from science, research and politics will be promoted.
