Activités: The German Advisory Council on Global Change (WBGU) was set up in 1992 as an independent scientific advisory body. The WBGU's remit is to publish reports that
- analyse global environmental and development problems,
- evaluate research on globally sustainable development, identify gaps in research, and generate stimuli for science,
- point out new problem areas like an early warning system,
- appraise global sustainability policy,
- give recommendations for action and research.
WBGU aims to raise awareness of the challenges of globally sustainable development through its press and public relations work.
