Insights into the BIO-CAPITAL project
This is where the BIO-CAPITAL partnership regularly provides insights into its project work. Here you will find news and updates to give you an impression of the exciting fields in which the project partners are working.
For biodiversity finance to drive real change, it must be widely understood and trusted. BIO-CAPITAL’s Work Package 6, led by Oikoplus is developing a communication, dissemination and engagement strategy to bridge the gap between research and real-world impact.
How Can Businesses Prove Their Commitment to Biodiversity? BIO-CAPITAL’s Work Package 5 (WP5), led by UCLouvain, is developing a trusted Biodiversity Certification system to ensure transparency and credibility in conservation investments.
Securing funding for biodiversity conservation requires innovative financial solutions beyond traditional grants and donations. BIO-CAPITAL’s Work Package 4 (WP4), led by GND, is developing investment models that make biodiversity protection economically viable.
Restoring Nature Is One Thing—Proving It Works Is Another. Effective biodiversity conservation requires measurable proof of impact to attract investment and drive large-scale change. BIO-CAPITAL’s Work Package 3 (WP3), led by GEOSYS, is pioneering high-precision biodiversity monitoring using Earth observation, AI-driven analytics, and remote sensing.
Who will finance biodiversity protection? While governments play a role, private investment is crucial, too. BIO-CAPITAL WP2 tackles this challenge by mapping financial landscapes, identifying policy gaps, and exploring investment mechanisms.
Bio-Capital Use Case 5 focuses on restoring river corridors and wetlands in South Devon, UK. Discover how nature-based solutions and financial innovations are helping to restore biodiversity, improve water quality, and build climate resilience in this vital landscape.
Slovenia’s species-rich grasslands restoration is at core of Use Case 4 of the Bio-Capital project. We want to study how financial incentives and sustainable land management practices can drive biodiversity conservation in one of Europe’s ecological hotspots.
Bio-Capital aims to take Romanian farming to the forefront of biodiversity-friendly agriculture. Use Case 3 introduces practices that restore soil health and enhance resilience to climate change, backed by innovative financial support that ensures the sustainability of these efforts.
Agroecological farming is reshaping agriculture in France. Bio-Capital Use Case 2 highlights efforts to enhance biodiversity and soil health through sustainable practices, supported by innovative financial mechanisms to ensure long-term viability.
BIO-CAPITAL aims at transforming Alpine forest management through innovative financial tools. Project Use Case 1 focuses on promoting sustainable practices in forests, addressing biodiversity loss and climate resilience in these critical ecosystems.
