Join us for the SFRC Workshop on 29th April, 2025
We invite you to our upcoming in-person workshop on 29th April, 2025 from 14:00 to 15:30, held in Room E.279.1 at the Institute of Finance, Corvinus University of Budapest.
The program will feature presentations on key topics including biodiversity finance, ESG integration, and sustainable finance, along with highlights from our newly launching BioSolar and NATUREFIN projects. We will also share insights from our participation in the inaugural BioSpace conference hosted by the European Space Agency (ESA), where we presented our work on using earth observation data to assess nature-related financial risks. You may find the recap of our ESA presentation here.
As part of its mission, SFRC leads interdisciplinary research initiative that break down silos between the natural and social sciences. We develop innovative financial frameworks and tools that position financial systems as drivers of transformative change. Our goal is to valorize academic research by strengthening its connection to real-world applications in the financial sector.

Dr. Helena Naffa Welcome from SFRC

Leading NATUREFIN
Leading NATUREFIN
We won a grant as consortium leaders for project NATUREFIN, an Interreg Europe project including seven partners from six European countries. The project targets aligning regional development regulations with sustainable finance to promote biodiversity. Project partners include policy responsible regional authorities from six countries Albania, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Spain, and Portugal. The project starts in May 2025 and lasts 4 years.
NATUREFIN is a play on words, suggesting nature finance as a tool to prevent nature "fin" - the end of nature's capacity to keep Earth livable.
We are excited about making impact at the regional level to preserve biodiversity, that is impacted by anthropogenic activities. The partners are keen to share knowledge and best practice, build capacity, and develop their policy instruments to enhance nature preservation.
We will participate in the Interreg Europe lead partner seminar in Krakow, Poland on 18th March, 2025.
Project kicks off on 1st May, 2025. Follow us for updates.
BioSpace25 Conference
BioSpace25 Conference
We got accepted to attend the BioSpace Conference and present our project GeoBiodivRisk in a live presentation.
BIOSPACE25 is the first international conference exclusively dedicated to the application of Satellite Remote Sensing (SRS) across the various dimensions of biodiversity, and addressing the use of Earth Observations in all realms, from terrestrial, freshwater, coastal to marine ecosystems.
It is the first edition of a series of BIOSPACE conferences that ESA and its partners intend to organise on a regular basis and which aim to bring together an interdisciplinary and cross-sectoral community of experts.
We are excited to be at the ESA headquarters in Frascati, Italy on 10-14th February, 2024.

BioSolar project funded
BioSolar project funded
We are project partners in BioSolar, one of the 34 projects funded under the Biodiversa+ 2023/2024 call for research. In total, 183 eligible pre-proposals and 108 full proposals were received and evaluated by an independent Evaluation Committee. https://www.biodiversa.eu/2023/06/05/2023-2024-joint-call/
We participated in a panel discussion with alongside diverse stakeholders including investors, regulators and NGOs to discuss the role of financial systems in advancing nature-positive investments, and help close the biodiversity funding gap. We discuss data sources for measurement and good practices. Panel discussions starts at 2:22:50.
