Abstract

The pandemic has triggered economies to rethink, rebuild, and transform into inclusive, environmentally friendly digital societies and businesses. A key enabler for the vision is technology, and women are driving the adoption of digital and green financial solutions to achieve economic and social goals. This chapter highlights how women are playing a greater role in protecting the environment, fighting climate change, and addressing financial inclusivity, all through digital finance. However, women are still under-represented, despite being more adversely affected by environmental issues and having less access to digital finance than men. This chapter provides recommendations for using digital financial technology to tackle environmental sustainability and gender equality at the same time.
