Green Governance: A Route to Enduring Development in a Developing Nation—A Case Study on Bangladesh

The main objective of this study was to determine how green governance can lead to sustainable development in Bangladesh. This study also includes factors that come into effect while ensuring green governance, such as policies and regulations regarding green governance, stakeholder engagement (SE), monitoring and reporting (MR), resource management (RM) and green technologies (GT). Data were collected through a survey questionnaire in which 330 respondents participated, and the data were analysed using SPSS software. The findings of this quantitative study support that policies and regulations, SE, MR, RM, GT, and so on, can lead Bangladesh to implement green governance as a pathway to sustainability. The findings of this study may contribute to the development of green governance, which may bring the country to the forefront of sustainable development and a growing market through sustainable products and services. Bangladeshi people and companies will become aware of environmental laws, regulations and guidelines; how to track environmental indicators, such as carbon emissions, water quality, biodiversity and sustainable development indicators; and how they can implement green governance. This study used a structured survey questionnaire to identify and quantify constraints on the practical implications of Green Governance in Bangladesh. JEL Classification: M14, M48, 038.
