The Green Finance Research Advances is an International Research Conference for academics and professionals, co-organized by Banque de France and Institut Louis Bachelier, with the participation of Institut de la Finance Durable and the Institute for Climate Economics-I4CE.
We invite academics, regulators and professionals to submit research papers for the 10th edition of the conference, which will take place in Paris and online on December 16th-17th, 2025. The conference will feature keynote presentations, contributed talks and a poster session.
The year 2025 marks a decade since the adoption of the Paris Agreement, a landmark in global climate diplomacy that aimed to limit global warming to well below 2°C, and ideally 1.5°C, above pre-industrial levels. As countries prepare to submit their third round of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and reflect on progress during the Global Stocktake, this milestone presents a crucial moment to evaluate the role of finance in delivering on climate goals. This year's edition will examine how the financial system has — and has not — aligned with the goals of the Paris Agreement, and what innovations are needed to meet the urgency of the decade ahead.
Overall, this year's edition places a special emphasis on the effectiveness, credibility, and ambition of financial instruments, policy frameworks and coordination mechanisms to support the transition to decarbonised economies and the achievement of the Paris Agreement Goals. We particularly welcome papers that investigate the levers of transformative change in green finance as well as those that study the challenges of implementation and impact measurability.
We welcome the submission of research papers on the following and other relevant topics:
- Credibility and effectiveness of national and financial commitments under the Paris Agreement
- Levers and pathways for implementing NDCs and scaling ambition
- Progress and Gaps in Aligning Financial Flows with the Paris Agreement
- Climate and nature nexus: integrated modelling approaches and trade-offs
- Modelling transitions, impacts, and system-wide responses to climate targets
- Enhancing Climate Metrics, Disclosure, and Decision-Useful Data
- Climate resilience and adaptation
Complete papers in PDF format should be submitted electronically, in English, by September 19, 2025, through this website (please submit your complete paper as attachment in the submission screen)
The results of the selection procedure will be announced by mid-October 2025.
The registration details for the conference will be communicated later.
