Think Sustainable Europe
The first pan-European network of sustainability think tanks
With the urgent need for evidence-based decision making in Europe, at the end of 2019 IEEP brought together leading sustainability think tanks to form Think Sustainable Europe, a network dedicated to providing policymakers across the continent with sound, science-based analysis and recommendations.
The network’s strength lies in its capacity to monitor the implementation of the European Green Deal in the EU Member states and beyond.
Think Sustainable Europe is the idea generator behind Think2030. Through the platform, IEEP and other Think Sustainable Europe members produce evidence-based recommendations targeting EU policy-makers and stakeholders on a series of key sustainability topics.

VOICES
“Think Sustainable Europe is the first and only pan-European network of environmental think tanks dedicated to the realization of a more sustainable Europe through robust science-based policy solutions. The network continues to grow and connect experts from the across the EU and beyond, at time when it is essential to come together behind a common goal that benefits society and the environment.”
Ben AllenInterim Executive Director, IEEP 
“By working together, we can leverage a much deeper and more robust
evidence base and become more effective in making it available and
accessible in Brussels and the Member States."
Måns NilssonExecutive Director, SEI 
"Think Sustainable Europe brings together leading institutes with decades of experience in critical research and policy advice. In this concerted effort, the coalition will help discover, convey and expedite better solutions across the EU."
Camilla BauschExecutive Director, Ecologic Institute 
"Our coalition of think tanks is particularly relevant to the EU policy processes because it helps ensure coherence between the political debates in our national capitals and the common long-term transformative objectives decided jointly in Brussels."
Sébastien TreyerExecutive Director, IDDRI 
"Think Sustainable Europe allows partners to share high-quality evidence-based research and knowledge that will lead to creative and bold solutions for Europe and help transition to more sustainable and equitable economies."
Nathalie Bernasconi-OsterwalderExecutive Director, IISD Europe 
"We need joint efforts and collaboration to make a sound pluralistic assessment of the current situation, identify commonalities and analyse barriers to find a common language for a joint vision and to develop strategies that can converge the goals for a sustainable EU with those in our countries."
Alexander MüllerManaging Director, TMG 
"We strongly believe in forging interactions and promoting collaboration, in developing well-documented positions and in strengthening the public discourse. With such an approach and a fresh perspective on Greece, we can contribute to the exchange of ideas within the Think Susainable Europe network and support the promotion of evidence-based transformative solutions for a sustainable Europe."
Ioli ChristopoulouPolicy Director and Founding Partner, The Green Tank 
"Think Sustainable Europe represents a coalition of leading institutes across Europe that can collectively offer a space for discovering transdisciplinary and more coherent solutions for the environmental and socio-economic challenges and for the promotion of transformative changes that the EU and its Member States are facing."
María José Sanz SánchezScientific Director, BC3 
"Think Sustainable Europe allows its members to exchange national perspectives and react more rapidly to shifts in the European public debate and policy landscape. We believe that by strengthening collaboration with our colleagues across the European Union, WiseEuropa can support the development of sustainable policy frameworks in Poland more effectively."
Katarzyna ZwolakManaging Director, WiseEuropa 
"By working together with outstanding experts from IEEP and Think Sustainable Europe, we hope to offer more science-based solutions and policy recommendations for Hungarian and European stakeholders. In today’s interconnected world, if we aim at fostering evidence-based policy making, we need to collate data, knowledge and experience from diverse sources accross sectors and borders."
Martina MéhesManaging and Policy Director, EnergiaKlub 
"Think Sustainable Network brings together think tanks from Europe’s East, West, North and South and creates a space where they can exchange national perspectives in order to work jointly at the European level. As part of this coalition of leading European institutes, the Association for International Affairs is better equipped to strive for the implementation of sustainability policies in the Czech Republic."
Vít DostálExecutive Director, AMO 
"By strengthening collaboration among its members and stimulating science-policy debates, the Think Sustainable Europe network fosters sharing and co-creation of knowledge that shapes solutions to key environmental and sustainability challenges across Europe."
Nuno VideiraDirector, CENSE 
"Knowledge sharing and cooperation are at the basis of the achievement of the ecological and climate transition. We always say in our foundation that green economy is a matter of team building between companies, NGOs, and institutions: our aim is that TSE becomes an accelerator for greening the European economy."
Raimondo OrsiniDirector, Sustainable Development Foundation
