Each month, on the first Wednesday, scholars and experts from within and beyond the RFF community will speak on important energy, environmental, and natural resource topics, with plenty of time left over to exchange ideas.

 

The seminar series runs during the academic year, from September through December, and from February through June. Events are held at the RFF Conference Center, first floor, 1616 P Street NW, Washington, DC, from 12:30-2 p.m. A casual lunch will be available at 12:30 p.m. and seminars begin promptly at 12:45 p.m.

 

Please RSVP by sending your name and contact details in an email to rffseminars@rff.org.
