Mission: For many years WUR has adopted the mission ‘to explore the potential of nature to improve the quality of life​’. This mission is unashamedly ambitious in reflecting our drive to maximise the potential of WUR as a force to accelerate the transitions required to achieve a more sustainable world for all life on Earth. Vision: The vision of WUR is to strike a delicate balance between the well-being of our planet with its diverse species and the needs of humanity for healthy food and environment. We tackle this global challenge by asking the right questions, fuelling curiosity, educating students and professionals, forging bold partnerships, and pushing the boundaries of curiosity-driven and applied science.
