European observatory of Transition
Transition is a movement bringing new initiatives : alternatives to the exhaustion of natural resources - starting with oil - and alternatives to climate change. By setting up concrete and varied initiatives, actors of Transition implement pathways for a different future. Given the ecological, economic and social threats our societies currently face, these initiatives bring new opportunities of social innovation for the development of sustainable and inclusive societies. Getting engaged in the Transition means tending towards a new economic and social model in order to make the world a better place for all.
