Clarté (French for "clarity") was a socialist and pacifist organisation in Norway.

It was founded in 1925, and had its roots in a French-based international organization of the same name. The international organization became defunct in 1923, but French and Swedish branches existed, and Danish and Finnish branches came in 1925 and 1926.[1]

In Norway, Clarté was strongly affliated with the organization Mot Dag, and Mot Dag's Arne Ording was chairman. Ording also edited the organization's periodical, also named Clarté.[1] This was published between 1929 and 1931.[2] Another Norwegian, Aake Anker Ording, was secretary-general of Nordisk Clartéforbund (the Nordic Clarté Association) from 1927.[1] Clarté in Norway existed until 1936, when it was reorganized with the new name Forum.[2] Mot Dag was disestablished in the same year.[3]
