All work of the WRR is public and published in one of four series.
- Reports to the government: extensive reports containing advice on government policy
- Policy briefs: shorter publications containing reflection on current topics, along with recommendations
- Investigations: publications in which the WRR points out societal issues
- Working papers: background studies written to support advisory projects
In addition to these four series, the WRR occasionally issues publications, videos and podcasts on current topics.
