about us
At the heart of eftec’s vision and purpose is to make nature’s invisible benefits visible.
Through our use of economic valuation methods, we reveal the value of nature and highlight the costs associated with harming it. This evidence informs our natural capital accounts, impact assessments, appraisals, evaluations, and policy design services to support public, business, and investment decisions.
We use multidisciplinary evidence to find lasting solutions: working with key experts in environmental sciences, human health, policy, finance, and social value. We assemble a bespoke team for every client and project by drawing from our in-house expertise and our network of associates and partner organisations.
As the world is embracing environmental economics, our work is more important than ever. We are catalysts for change, sparking collaboration across stakeholders from different sectors and places to tackle the urgent challenges of our time.
