International Conference on Green Economy and Sustainable Growth through Strategic Change
The 7th International Conference on Green Economy and Sustainable Growth through Strategic Change organised by the School of Business, MAHE, Dubai, in collaboration with the Department of Commerce, MAHE, Manipal and College of Banking and Financial Studies, Muscat, Sultanate of Oman 22nd & 23rd of February 2024. Under the overarching theme of 'Green Economy and Sustainable Growth through Strategic Change. In recent years, economies all around the world have been experiencing a protracted slowdown driven by structural, global, and cyclical factors. Economic strategies that have been implemented to tackle recession and achieve rapid economic development have endangered sustainable growth by contributing to environmental degradation, global warming, and other negative repercussions. Changing the paradigm to a green economy will boost natural capital stocks, safeguard the environment, and ensure social justice by providing practical tools and approaches to achieve sustainable growth while reducing environmental risks and ecological scarcities. A transition to a green economy, however, faces challenges such as a lack of an appropriate policy framework, inadequate capital expenditure, varying levels of development, and resource endowments. Therefore, for green sustainable development, newer business models, strategic changes and innovation in the use of resources, responsible and cleaner business practices, and green technologies are needed.
The conference drew together and engage researchers, eminent practitioners, and policymakers from countries across the globe in a number of plenary and parallel sessions that deliberate on the latest findings on practices and policies for a green economy and sustainable growth through strategic change and identify priorities for action by stakeholders to pursue the most promising policies and practices. The conference will also serve as a venue where academic peers may exchange information, share experiences, collaborate, and develop management answers to pressing business issues. The conference solicits research papers and case studies from multi-disciplinary areas related to the conference theme and six sub-themes that address management, green economy, and sustainability-related aspects.
