As global environmental, social, and economic challenges demand bold decisions, this volume brings together the latest research on alternative methods for fostering sustainable development. Traditional economic and financial systems often fall short in addressing issues such as climate change, social inequalities, and resource depletion.
This volume serves as an interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers seeking new methods of financing and resource management to enable a more sustainable future. It covers a wide range of topics, from alternative financing sources to groundbreaking technological innovations, analysing their impact on the global economy and society.
Alternative financing models such as crowdfunding, asset tokenisation, and fintech solutions provide answers to the limitations of traditional banking institutions, democratising access to capital. Simultaneously, technological innovations like artificial intelligence, big data, and space-based solutions open new possibilities for environmental monitoring and optimisation.
Contemporary Studies in Economic and Financial Analysis publishes a series of current and relevant themed volumes within the fields of economics and finance. Both disciplinary and interdisciplinary studies are welcome.
