Know
where to act
Pareto is a think tank dedicated to strengthening collective agency and the quality of democratic debate to accelerate socio-ecological transformation.
We turn research into tools that clarify what is at stake and show where action has the most effect.

What we mean by socio-ecological transformation and by collective agency
- Socio-ecological transformation
- A radical and democratic change in political, economic, technological and cultural systems, so that ways of developing become more consistent with planetary boundaries and human well-being. Adapted from Riffon (2019) · four definitions compared in the political stances compass
- Collective agency
- The capacity of people and communities to gain more control over what matters to them. It rests on resources and skills, and also on an understanding of the issues that shows where to act. Adapted from Le Bossé (2003)
