concerted

Done in unison

Concerted describes action taken together by multiple parties working toward a shared goal: a concerted effort to reduce emissions, a concerted campaign against corruption.

The word emphasizes coordination and collective purpose—not just simultaneous but deliberately unified.

In music, concerted refers to arrangements for multiple voices or instruments performing together.
