The Copenhagen Consensus is an attempt by Bjorn Lomborg's Environmental Assessment Institute to influence global priorities away from some of the major environmental concerns.

Due to take place in May 2004, it will take the form of a meeting of a selection of economists, who will consider a set of "challenge papers" on subjects such as education and climate change, and prioritise economic solutions to these problems.
