Strengthening Conceptual Thinking in Politics and Public Institutions
The European School of Governance supports policy-makers and decision-makers in governments, non-governmental organizations and multinational corporations in addressing complex challenges through consulting activities, capacity building and the support of complex reasoning and decision-making processes. It is our goal to apply the latest insights from research and our long lasting experience in order to develop novel approaches to facilitate progress towards better global and local governance through superior risk management and systemically-integrated policy development in order to:
- Deliver environmentally and socially sustainable economic growth
- Reduce poverty and improve equity
- Address the core sources of global and national vulnerability, and promote security
- Share the core norms and values that enable global coexistence, and work to reconcile cultural differences; and
- Improve the quality of global governance and the performance of our global institutions.
Increasing complexity and an accelerating pace of structural change constitute qualitatively new (cultural) challenges for which human cognition is – from a biological evolutionary perspective - not well prepared. eusg as a subsidiary of the not for profit Parmenides Foundation research organisation uses the foundations’ Parmenides Eidos methodology as a major constituent of its work in supporting governments and institutions to analyse complex problems, develop novel strategies and approaches to adress complex challenges and take better decisions. We believe that supporting „good thinking“ can help to adress the todays challenges and risks and thus shaping a good future.
