CONCITO, Denmark's green think tank, was founded on September 1, 2008. Their purpose is to provide analyses and information on low-cost transition towards a climate-neutral society in Denmark and in other parts of the world.
CONCITO is Denmark’s largest green network with nearly 100 companies, researchers, organisations and individuals as members of the Council. The Council Members constitute the think tank and are affiliated to a number of working groups on specific topics which develop new projects and follow on-going analysis and dissemination projects. Major projects are financed by independent foundations.
CONCITO is also involved in a number of international networks with other think tanks world wide who share the same purpose and profile as CONCITO, e.g. the World Resources Institute in the U.S., ZERO in Norway and the European Climate Foundation in the Hague.
CONCITO believes that climate problems have to be solved internationally but that Denmark can benefit from taking the lead. There are huge political, business and economic potentials in being first.
CONCITO is independent of political and commercial interests.
