Sustainability Research and Modeling Solutions
Amaranthus
Citizens, Science and Policy for Sustainability and Well being
About us
Amaranthus is a newly founded social enterprise, founded in Athens, Greece, by a diverse group of multidisciplinary researchers in order to promote innovation, sustainability, citizen engagement and human well being through European research projects and multinational collaboration.
Our strength is creating out-of-the-box solutions by combining different disciplines. We try to connect the dots and use a systems thinking approach for disruptive and game-changing socioecological innovations that are fit for the future. We seek to change the research ecosystem from the traditional top down methodology to an inclusive bottom up approach. We bring science to the people. Our motto includes research, development and education of social innovation and modelling solutions.
Our Vision
We envision an all inclusive society where everyone gets a say.
We aspire to collaborate with local players to bring sustainable and green practices to everyone.
We dream to transform the world with regenerative practices, inclusive models and socially equitable policies.
We strive to enhance the human-nature relationship and valorize local knowledge and cultural heritage.
