THINK TANK
THINK ABOUT THE FUTURE
Beyond partisan logic.
We foster an attitude that acknowledges societal and environmental challenges while remaining confident in our ability to address them. This includes staying open to new ideas while being grounded in reality. We are not soldiers aiming to convince; instead, we adjust our worldview to share what we believe best reflects reality. We strive to see the world as clearly as possible rather than defend our own beliefs.
GIVE BACK A POSITIVE VISION OF THE FUTURE
OUR
vision
Never have we had access to so much knowledge, and never has our ability to transform our environment been greater. This cognitive and operational power gives us the means to improve the world on an unprecedented scale in our history.
OUR
mission
By developing critical thinking, we help better understand the world and discern what truly matters in the face of contemporary challenges. In a complex and polarized society, we help find the most rational path to follow for each of us.
OUR
POSITIONING
We believe in humanity and its ability to improve the state of the world. Contrary to narratives that offer only a bleak view of the human adventure, we offer optimistic perspectives for the future.
OUR
VALues
Extending humanism and rational ecology, we recognize the intrinsic value of all individuals capable of suffering and experiencing pleasure, that is, sentient beings. We follow a rational ethics aimed at the coherence of ends and the effectiveness of means.
