World Resources Forum 2009, Davos-Switzerland

Held for the first time in 2009, the World Resources Forum in Davos has attracted a high-level selection of speakers, including Dennis Meadows (Co-Author Limits to Growth), Ashok Khosla (President IUCN), Ernst-Ulrich von Weizsäcker (Author Factor 4) and Mathis Wackernagel (Executive Director, Global Footprint Network) and a range of high-level policy makers. The event will re-position the topic of resource consumption and productivity and aims to have a direct and tangible impact on policy makers.

Blogging at the WRF 2009 was the foundational assignment of the Student Reporters Prorgam and laid out the basis for a partnership between oikos International and the Mercator Foundation Switzerland.
