Green Transition Denmark (formerly: Danish Ecological Council)
Green Transition Denmark (formerly known as Danish Ecological Council) is a non-profit organisation founded in 1991. Its main objective is to promote sustainable development, where environmental concerns, social justice and human well-being are main focal points.
Green Transition is different from other Danish NGOs because it is an academic organisation that deals with environmental policy on a scientific basis, but at the same time tries to inform and engage in dialogue with both politicians and the general public.
The organisation is not subsidised by the state. The work is financed by projects and member contributions and supported by voluntary work.
