Tankesmien Skaperkraft

Tankesmien Skaperkraft (the Skaperkraft think tank) is a Norwegian Christian think tank established as a foundation (stiftelse) on 28 April 2011 by 70 individuals drawn from various sectors of society. Its stated purpose is to "stimulate reflection, contribute to debate and engage in active community building." The organisation takes as its starting point the intrinsic value of the individual and what it describes as a shared responsibility for developing a sustainable and inclusive community. It is inspired by the basic values of the Bible and classical Christian thought, particularly as expressed in the Cape Town Declaration. Skaperkraft publishes articles, notes, and books, and arranges debate meetings on themes central to its mission. Although based in Oslo, it also has activities elsewhere in Norway and is engaged in international cooperation projects. Its work includes the initiative "Jubileenes tiår – på vei mot 2030" (The Decade of Jubilees – Towards 2030), linked to the National Jubilee 2030. The think tank is financed through contributions from individuals, foundations, and organisations. From 2015 to 2023, Filip Rygg led the think tank. Joakim Magnus took over as daily leader on 1 April 2023. Skaperkraft has six defined focus areas, each with concrete goals: Faith and Society (preserving the best of Christian cultural heritage while engaging with other faiths in a secular, modern, multicultural society); Relationalism (strengthening community values and social capital); Economy, Business and Innovation (releasing sustainable and ethically sound creative power to build the future); Stewardship and Solidarity (contributing to national and international sustainable welfare growth); Health and Quality of Life (promoting dignity, ethics, and resource distribution in treatment and care); and Education (promoting formation and the liberation of individual potential for the common good). Through its website, skaperkraft.no, the think tank publishes commentary and analysis on current affairs, including articles by Bjørn Are Davidsen on topics such as the church's role in Norwegian history, Christian values in public debate, technology ethics, and the language of faith. The organisation positions itself as a bridge-builder between church and society, engaging Christians to participate in public life.
