Enabling a Natural Capital Approach: Event in Dublin

with eftec and Trinity College Dublin, supported by Natural Capital Ireland




If you or someone you know works in Ireland, please take a look at this opportunity from eftec and Trinity College Dublin:


On October 15, from 10am to 4pm, eftec and Trinity College Dublin will be hosting a special in-person event to share their expertise in the natural capital approach and natural capital accounting.


The event, supported by Natural Capital Ireland, is open to anyone and will be tailored to the interests of attendees. Drawing from decades of experience in preparing company accounts, supporting company disclosures, and using natural capital for green finance strategies, the event will showcase the difference that using natural capital accounts makes for land-use management, green finance strategies, and beyond.
