Description

In recent times, policymakers and scholars have directed their attention toward the notion of sustainability and green finance, coinciding with the growing global emphasis on environmental protection, climate change mitigation, and sustainable development. The integration of sustainability and green finance practices has emerged as a crucial strategy to address climate change, advance sustainable development goals issues, and build a resilient global economy in the face of pressing environmental challenges. The adoption of green finance and sustainability practices is no longer limited to developed economies. Many developing and under-developed countries are also taking a proactive approach to develop and implement a roadmap and framework for incorporating sustainability. In this chapter, the authors explore the notion of green finance, its crucial role in advancing sustainability, and the substantial consequences it can bring about for diverse businesses and stakeholders. 2023, IGI Global.
