        <h2>About the Council<\/h2>\r\n                <p class=\"p-l\">The Council for Sustainable Development (RNE) provides independent advice to the Federal Government on matters of sustainability and future policy and is newly appointed every three years. It consists of 15 public figures from business, civil society, science, and politics. The Council is supported by an office based in Berlin. On 28 January 2026, Federal Chancellor Friedrich Merz reappointed the German Council for Sustainable Development (RNE). At its inaugural meeting, the Council elected its new leadership: Gerald H. Haug as Chair, with former-Chair Reiner Hoffmann as his deputy. <\/p>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n            <a class=\"btn btn-primary btn-icon-right btn-arrow-right\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nachhaltigkeitsrat.de\/en\/the-council\/\">\r\n            Learn more        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n        <div class=\"embla-frontpage-council\"\r\n            data-autoplay=\"false\"\r\n            data-autoplay-delay=\"5000\">\r\n            <div class=\"carousel-container\">\r\n                <button class=\"embla__button embla__button--prev\" type=\"button\"><\/button>\r\n                <div class=\"embla__viewport\">\r\n                    <div class=\"embla__container\">\r\n                                                    <article class=\"embla__slide\">\r\n                                <div class=\"embla__slide__content\">\r\n                                    <div class=\"quote-svg\"><\/div>\r\n                                    <div class=\"member-image\">\r\n                                            <div class=\"image-container group\">\r\n        <div class=\"aspect-ratio-box\">\r\n            <picture>\r\n                                    <source\r\n                        media=\"(max-width: 2560px)\"\r\n                        srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nachhaltigkeitsrat.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Zuschnitt_neu_Prof_Dr_Gerald_H_Haug_Foto_David-Ausserhofer-570x482.jpg\">\r\n                \r\n                                    <img\r\n                        src=\"https:\/\/www.nachhaltigkeitsrat.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Zuschnitt_neu_Prof_Dr_Gerald_H_Haug_Foto_David-Ausserhofer.jpg\"\r\n                        alt=\"\"\r\n                        class=\"single-image\"\r\n                        loading=\"lazy\"\r\n                        decoding=\"async\" \/>\r\n                \r\n                            <\/picture>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n                                    <\/div>\r\n                                    <div class=\"member-info\">\r\n\r\n                                        \r\n                                        <h5 class=\"member-name\">\r\n                                            <span class=\"member-realname\">Prof. Dr Gerald H.
