Welcome to Resource Recovery Forum

The Resource Recovery Forum is an international non-profit network of more than 300 organisations interested in sustainable waste management - making better use of waste that is produced. The Forum's aims are simple. 

RRF was established in 1997 and its membership is drawn from: industry; local & national government; international institutions; academia; the voluntary sector; waste management businesses; NGOs, and; consultants. We have member organisations from Canada and the USA across many European countries to Australasia. From Aberdeenshire Council and AEA Technology to Yale University.

RRF has five Trustees, one of whom is elected as Chair, each year.

The Forum benefits from the members' Advisory Committee, a group of 30 members who are also elected annually. 

Membership benefits

Members of the Forum receive many benefits. The Forum organises conferences and meetings, and both endorses and speaks at third party events. RRF operates a great news service, delivered daily (up to 1,000 items pa, no ads, no attachments, just useful and topical information on policy & practice from around the world) or as weekly digests. A single member organisation can add unlimited numbers of employees to this fine facility. Also, the items are archived online and are fully searchable.

 The Forum's regular Advisory Committee meetings (4-5 per year, usually in London) are open to all RRF members, and invariably feature an interesting guest presentation. On December 3, Sarah Gray from WRAP attended and gave a presentation on two recent food waste studies. Follow this link for Sarah's slides and the two studies.
