CONCITO is Denmark’s largest climate think tank, established in 2008 by former Climate Change Minister Martin Lidegaard. Its mission is to transform scientific climate research into practical solutions for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and fostering climate resilience. Working with businesses, academia, and civil society, CONCITO engages in diverse areas such as energy transition, sustainable food systems, urban planning, and green finance. The organization acts as a neutral platform to facilitate dialogue between policymakers, companies, and citizens while developing innovative climate pathways. Through programs like the "Climate Embassy," CONCITO also empowers youth to engage in climate action.
Internationally, CONCITO collaborates with global partners like the World Resources Institute and C40 to share best practices and strengthen climate policy development. Its goal is to inspire climate innovation locally and globally, leveraging Denmark’s role as a hub for pioneering climate policies.
