About
Dr Fevziye Hasan
I am a biodiversity scientist working at the intersection of business and biodiversity. I support senior leaders in making science-informed decisions about biodiversity risks, dependencies, and opportunities, so they can build long-term business resilience without investing in token or ineffective solutions.
Biodiversity is now a board-level issue, yet many decisions are still shaped by oversimplified proxies, incomplete ecological insight, or symbolic actions. My work brings real biodiversity science into strategic decision-making, helping leaders move beyond compliance towards defensible, future-ready choices.
I specialise in functional ecology and have experience across diverse ecosystems, from tropical rainforests in Borneo to agricultural pastures in New Zealand. I am the lead author of The Business Case for Investing in Biodiversity Data, host of the Biodiversity Impact podcast, and have completed training from business and finance perspectives including the University of Oxford programme on Nature-Based Solutions to Global Challenges (2023) and the UNDP course Biodiversity Finance: Designing and Implementing Finance Plans for Nature.
My approach is science-led, strategic, and collaborative, working with leaders who take biodiversity seriously and want decisions that stand up to scientific scrutiny and long-term business resilience.
