Understanding the world of raw materials better

The research group „Global Resource Use“ at the Institute for Ecological Economics is starting a new project for the Austrian Ministry of Sustainability and Tourism. The team will further develop the online portal www.materialflows.net, which provides analyses and visualisations of data on global raw material extraction. In addition to the recently published Country Profiles and Raw Material Profiles, new visualisations and stories will be developed. By that means, the portal shall remain at the forefront of data visualisation and enable science-based policy development.
