The Copenhagen Consensus Center is a think-tank based in Denmark that tells governments and philanthropists about the best ways to spend aid and development money.

We commission research that analyzes the optimal ways to combat the biggest problems facing the world. 

We promote the use of sound economic science to make sure that with limited resources, we achieve the most good for people and the planet.
