Wikipedia tells us:

The doctrine of Pratītyasamutpāda (Sanskrit) or Paṭiccasamuppāda (Pāli; Tibetan: rten.cing.’brel.bar.’byung.ba) is Buddhism’s primary contribution to metaphysics. Common to all Schools of Buddhism, it states that phenomena arise together in a mutually interdependent web of cause and effect. It is variously rendered into English as “dependent origination,” “conditioned genesis,” “dependent co-arising,” “interdependent arising,” etc.
