This book allows us to compare the strategies used by different economies in the world regarding implementing digital currencies in the monetary system and their impact on the green economy. It evaluates the effectiveness of such strategies concerning the sustainability model of the economy (green economy, circulated economy, doughnut economy). It offers case studies from Asia, Europe, and other regions from different sectors focusing on how the government operates under its policy in the given countries to fulfil the SDGs. Although the sustainable development policy is not new, this book brings together academicians and experts from different parts of the world to share their views and knowledge on this subject with a focus on case studies and regional perspectives.
