The Conference brings together leading international academics, policymakers, and practitioners to present innovative research and engage in dialogue on critical issues in sustainable finance.
Launched in 2017 by the Department of Management of the University of Rome “La Sapienza”, the Conference has become a key annual meeting for global experts in social impact finance. Since the 2023 edition, the Conference has been co-organised with the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission, GreenWatch (University College Dublin, UCD), SoGReS-MF (Jaume I University of Castellón), FINRES (UNED University, Spain), and The University of Hamburg. These institutions joined the founding partners: Sapienza University of Rome, UnitelmaSapienza, and Casmef – LUISS Guido Carli.
The 2026 Conference invites scholars to submit original research papers from a broad range of sustainability-related fields, including but not limited to sustainable finance, sustainability reporting, nature finance, green legislation, and the SDGs. The Conference engages high-standing scholars and professionals and will host several outstanding keynote speakers, to be announced soon.
We welcome submissions from a broad range of fields related to sustainability research including but not limited to sustainable finance, sustainability reporting, nature finance, green legislation, and any SDG. Two publication opportunities are connected to this year’s edition:
Journal of Sustainable Finance & Investment (JSF&I): In consultation with the Editor-in-Chief, selected conference papers will be considered for submission to a regular issue of the Journal of Sustainable Finance & Investment under a fast-track peer review process.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
