Bucharest University of Economic Studies, Bucharest, Romania
11-12 June 2026
The global economy faces unprecedented challenges, from climate change and resource depletion to financial instability and technological disruption. Traditional economic models, often prioritising short-term growth over long-term sustainability, are increasingly inadequate in addressing these issues. In response, there is a growing need to rethink economic frameworks, integrating sustainability, responsible finance, and innovative accounting practices.
The Symposium “Rethinking Economic Models: Sustainability, Finance, and Accounting in Times of Transformation”, to be held in Bucharest, Romania, brings together academics, policymakers, and industry leaders to explore transformative approaches that align economic systems with environmental and social well-being.
