Sustainability is a topic of great interest today, particularly for
the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, which have witnessed
very rapid economic and demographic growth over the past decade.
The observed growth has led to unsustainable consumption patterns
of vital resources such as water, energy, and food, highlighting
the need for an urgent shift towards green growth and sustainable
development strategies. Sustainability in the Gulf covers the
region's contemporary development challenges through the lens of
the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which place
sustainability at the centre of the solution to the current
environmental, economic, and social imbalances facing GCC
countries. The book presents multiple analyses of Gulf-specific
sustainability topics, examining the current status, challenges,
and opportunities, as well as identifying key lessons learned.
Innovative and practical policy recommendations are provided, as
well as new conceptual angles to the evolving academic debates on
the post-oil era in the Gulf. Through chapters covering
sector-related studies, as well as the socio-economic dimensions of
the sustainability paradigm, this volume offers valuable insights
into current research efforts made by the GCC states, proposing a
way forward based on lessons learned. This is a valuable resource
for students, academics, and researchers in the areas of
Environmental Studies, Political Economy, and Economics of the GCC
states.
