In addition to research and publications, FaFin offers information and educational formats, organizes discussion and dialogue formats, and initiates networks for sustainable financial innovation. The goal: A financial and monetary system that once again fulfills its societal purpose while integrating social and ecological criteria.
About the Fair Finance Institute
At the Fair Finance Institute, we believe that our money and financial system must be fundamentally adapted to the real world and its challenges – ecologically, socially, and economically. FaFin works trans- and interdisciplinary on research and practice projects that reflect and transform the role of money, markets, and financial institutions in society. FaFin connects theory and practice, creates learning and experience spaces, and promotes dialogue and cooperation across sectors and borders.
FaFin has set itself the mission of researching, designing, and making a sustainable, fair, and future-oriented financial and monetary system practically tangible. To this end, it develops new concepts together with others, networks with partners from civil society, science, and politics, and contributes to ensuring that the financial system fulfills its actual purpose – supporting real life and a fair development logic – once again.
