Ecologic Institute

Please Donate and Help us Save the Planet!

Ecologic is a private, independent, non-profit institute, officially recognized to exist and act in the public interest, and financed almost entirely through project-related income ('soft money'). Ecologic has no endowment or core support from any government, business or foundation.

Ecologic develops practical policy solutions to global challenges. Much of our work is greatly appreciated by policy-makers. An important part of what we do is critical of government action – or inaction – and we need your support and donations for this work.

With your donations, we can do what is necessary to protect the environment and our common future in addition to our project work. You also help us to remain independent financially and thus politically. With your support, Ecologic gains influence as an internationally-minded, competent voice for environment and sustainable development.

Please help us setting the agenda, and support our other activities, notably international exchanges and the mobility of young professionals.
