Ariadne’s Thread is a term scientists and philosophers use to describe the solving of a problem, such as an ethical dilemma or a puzzle, through an exhaustive application of logic to all available routes. Add that to the legend of Ariadne herself, who solved the problem of the labyrinth with a ball of red wool, and you have the reasons why the new European Human Rights Funders Network chose to call itself Ariadne rather than add another acronym to the alphabet soup.
