Mistra Biopath

BIOPATH is a research programme with a vision that the knowledge and innovations generated in BIOPATH will be integrated into decision-making in industry and the financial system, contributing to a transformative change that turns the financial system into an important driver for halting and reversing the loss of biodiversity. BIOPATH aims to map, assess, co-develop and test existing and novel approaches for integration of biodiversity considerations into financial decision-making with our financial and industrial partners, and analyse the institutional and policy implications of potential transition pathways. BIOPATH consists of an interdisciplinary group of researchers with expertise in biodiversity research, life-cycleassessment, biodiversity prioritisation approaches, sustainable finance, economics, political science, accounting, policy processes, law and governance, and digital innovation. Partners are global leaders in sustainability work, covering the entire land-use value-chain of the agriculture, forestry and energy industry as well as the financial system, thereby having a real impact and an ability to foster change. BIOPATH is funded by Mistra, the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Environmental Research. and hosted by Lund University School of Economics and Management.
