Thereafter, an unprecedent increase in global warming causing severer and harmful climate changes and environmental instabilities led to the establishment of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In 2015, the United Nations accepted them into its global agenda for eradicating poverty, protecting the environment, and promoting peace to all people by 2030. Unsustainable development leads to depletion of natural resources, which is not simply a moral or ecological issue but are pertaining to economics, development, human health, and justice. The interconnected 17 SDGs acknowledge that the decision made in one area will have its repercussions in other areas and insist to strike a balance between environmental, social, and economic dimensions of sustainability. The digital circular economy (DCE) has been well-known in recent years as a tool that answers some of the most urgent cross-cutting sustainable development challenges facing the globe. This model holds great promise for accelerating the 2030 Agendas implementation with the potential to achieve the various goals of sustainable development like SDGs 6 (energy), 8 (economic progress), 11 (sustainable cities), 12 (sustainable consumption and production), 13 (climate change), 14 (oceans), and 15 (life on land). This requires significant changes in the organization of societies and businesses to progress towards sustainable future. Limitations The study is limited to analyze the global SDGs and related policies that are helpful in catalyzing DCE. Findings This chapter analyzes the global strategic plans and policies aimed at enhancing SDGs affirming the significance of digital economy for synergizing with the SDGs.
