The biodiversity day at Fondazione UNIMI will focus on the theme: “Biodiversity in Food and Agriculture Sectors”. The event is a unique opportunity to learn and connect with experts and stakeholders i...

As part of the Horizon Europe CircHive project, Diana Tuomasjukka, EFI, works on advancing biodiversity measurement and indicators. In a recent interview, she explains how biodiversity is assessed, how indicators are chosen, and how monitoring approaches vary across contexts. “Indicators are proxies for the whole. They do not cover the entirety, but it's the closest approximation to give information on how biodiversity in general terms is doing,” she adds.

Diana Tuomasjukka, Senior Researcher at the European Forest Institute, explains how the road of sustainability considerations has evolved from voluntary to more regulatory frameworks. The CircHive project is developing methods that combine biodiversity footprinting and natural capital accounting. These tools help businesses and public institutions measure and manage their environmental impacts more effectively. As a partner in CircHive, EFI leads the BEEHive, a community where partners can network, learn and adopt the latest insights on biodiversity footprinting and natural capital accounting. 0:11 How has biodiversity become more important in sustainability reporting? 1:17 How is biodiversity assessed and measured for reporting? 1:48 What forest-specific indicators for biodiversity are currently used? 3:01 What approaches to biodiversity monitoring and reporting are companies currently adopting?

Land use change is the primary driver of biodiversity loss. But with a circular bioeconomy, it is possible to reduce the land area needed for biomass production, while also recycling fibres and capturing carbon dioxide. In a recent interview, Erika Winquist, Senior Scientist from Luke and coordinator of CircHive, explains why biodiversity matters for the circular bioeconomy, introduces the core components of the CircHive project, highlights BEEHive, and shares that she looks forward to the European Business and Nature Summit this year in Helsinki, Finland.

Explore how Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Natural Capital Accounting (NCA) intersect in biodiversity footprinting, and discover the role of the CircHive project in advancing these methodologies. #NCA #LCA #biodiversityfootprinting #sustainability

Join Mohammad Naji, researcher at the EFI and partner in the CircHive project, as he explains how Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Natural Capital Accounting (NCA) can be integrated into biodiversity footprinting. Discover how these methodologies help quantify environmental impacts and the value of ecosystem services, guiding sustainable decision-making. #LCA #NCA #CircHive #EnvironmentalImpact #EcosystemServices #LifeCycleAssessment #NaturalCapitalAccounting

Researcher Mohammad Naji at the European Forest Institute (EFI) explains the difference between life cycle assessment and natural capital accounting, and how biodiversity can be incorporated into both methods. The CircHive project is developing methods that combine biodiversity footprinting and natural capital accounting. These tools help businesses and public institutions measure and manage their environmental impacts more effectively.  As a partner in CircHive, EFI leads the BEEHive, a community where partners can network, learn and adopt the latest insights on biodiversity footprinting and natural capital accounting.
