The Think Tank

For a revolution of discernment

A citizen platform anyone can join to clean up public debate, carry out a true revolution of discernment and become a collective citizen.

The doctrine

The Collective Citizen

A sovereign, enlightened and supportive actor who moves beyond isolation to take back control of their destiny and the permanent oversight of the common good. Political change of hands is not enough unless it comes with a qualitative transition in our consciences and our customs.

The Revolution of Discernment

Equipping the Collective Citizen intellectually to analyse public policy dispassionately, read a budget rigorously and refuse opacity in all its forms. The Star is their ethical compass; the City, their field of action.

Read the founding manifesto The charter of courtesy

Ancrer de sa conscience, illuminer de sa vision les mille rouages de la Cité.

Le singulier, le commun, l'habituel, l'ordinaire : tout ce qui meuble notre maison de vie, ce flanc de beauté qui dessine une saison d'être.

Ma vérité palpite dans ce leitmotiv, au diapason d'un cœur souverain.

Les paupières closes, je m'abandonne au souffle du peuple.

Je ne suis plus une simple mortelle qui passe, mais le vertige d'un astre infini : une étoile politique dont chaque battement de cœur suspend l'univers.
