The institute has two key tasks:

Stimulating both public debate and the formation of political judgements. Technological and scientific developments sometimes give rise to more questions than answers. The Rathenau Institute highlights the significance of these developments for individuals and society. What are the possibilities, yet also the risks? In professional jargon this is called Technology Assessment (TA).

Describing the Dutch science system. The Rathenau Institute is investigating the dynamics of the scientific and technological process: how is the science system organised, how does it respond to scientific, societal and economic developments, and to what specific scientific developments does this lead? This task is called Science System Assessment (SciSA).
