Rooted in political ecology, the Green European Foundation strives to spread green ideas across Europe, to feed new and forward looking ideas into the green movement itself and to connect the European Green family in its efforts to promote green thinking.

Alongside the rest of the Green family, GEF shares the view that a true European response is fundamental in tackling the most pressing issues of our time: climate change; an efficient use and sustainable production of energy; a reorientation of our economy to guarantee social inclusion and sustainability; peace; development; and the consolidation of democracy and fundamental rights. The EU is, however, not exempt of flaws; that’s why we take a critical stance when intervening in the current discussions on EU policies and on the general political development in our countries.
