ERCST workstream on sustainable finance (SF) aims at bringing together relevant stakeholders on a regular basis to discuss substantive issues. ERCST has the objective to provide well though input to the SF discussion, benefitting from a multi-stakeholder debate. This event will gather a diverse panel to discuss the challenge of making the EU Taxonomy work in a transition context, where it will interact with other sustainable finance & environmental policies. ERCST conducted, throughout the summer, a survey on this topic and will present its preliminary findings during the event.
