Author Description

This Research Handbook brings together a unique collection of scholarly perspectives on sustainability issues, policies, and agendas in the Global South. Structured around the three core pillars of sustainability - economic, environmental, and social - it explores how digital technologies can support the advancement of initiatives beyond the Global North. The Research Handbook on Sustainable Business Practices in the Global South outlines the role of culture in shaping attitudes towards sustainability and provides examples of greener business models. Leading experts present valuable insights into the practical application of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals, evaluating the import-substitution trade strategy for the industrialization of less developed countries. Shifting the discourse away from dominant Western biases and towards underrepresented voices and regions, it fosters more balanced and inclusive discussions that better reflect the international implications of sustainability. Comprehensive in scope, this Research Handbook is an essential resource for students and academics in international business and sustainability. Its approach to ethical dilemmas and practices will also greatly benefit entrepreneurs and practitioners in finance and sustainability.
