Gender equality and social inclusion (GESI) and institutions as key drivers of green entrepreneurship

This study aims to evaluate the roles of Gender Equity and Social Inclusion (GESI) and institutions, as drivers of green entrepreneurship and sustainable development goals (SDGs). A systematic and holistic integrated approach was used in encouraging the developmental processes, with both primary and secondary data qualitatively and quantitatively utilized. Mixed methods were also used through two phases, namely exploratory and explanatory design. The results showed that the role of GESI and community institutions encouraged the improvement of green entrepreneurship, whose role was one of the win-win solutions in mitigating the impact of global climate change and encouraging the achievement of the SDGs. Based on the limitations, the awareness of every individual was globally required on the importance of entrepreneurial trends. These results are expected to increase the knowledge and understanding of green entrepreneurship importance, as an alternative to contemporary global business.
