Abstract

Stakeholders, service providers, and social systems may be aided in achieving sustainable development with environmental and socioeconomic benefits if they embrace sustainable consumption behavior and control the production and consumption cycle. The aim of this study was to analyze the determinants that influence Bangladeshi consumers’ sustainable purchasing behavior. A quantitative survey was conducted among 100 participants of different ages. The data was gathered from Jashore City in Bangladesh using a scheduled interview and the convenience sample technique. According to the findings, sustainable consumption intention was the driving force that influences consumer behavior toward sustainable purchasing behavior, while supportive behaviour towards environmental organizations, attitude towards sustainable purchasing, perceived knowledge about sustainability issues, perceived marketplace influence, environmental concern, and subjective norms do not influence consumer behavior toward sustainable purchases. Since, Bangladesh is a developing country, some respondents were not known to the concept of ‘waste management’ but there were many consumers who were giving importance on waste management and were involved in sustainable purchasing in the emergence of protecting the environment. The authors expect and anticipate that the results of this article will be useful to relevant authorities and policymakers in developing market research and management policies and strategies.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze determinants impacting the sustainable entrepreneurial intentions of students in public universities in Bangladesh. The study also examined the relationship between sustainable entrepreneurial intention and the determinants need for achievement, locus of control, family business background, and entrepreneurial education. In all, 26 attributes were considered when creating the study's questionnaire. 200 respondents are surveyed using a questionnaire approach. The study directly utilized SPSS (version 21) for data analysis. The study has used linear regression analysis. The survey result demonstrated that the need for achievement and family business background have a significant influence on university students' sustainable entrepreneurial intentions. Family business encourages and inspires students to start a business as a career option. Personal traits trigger students to take risks in their careers through a need for achievement. The remaining two factors, locus of control and entrepreneurial education, have moderate or no significant influence on university students' sustainable entrepreneurial intentions. The results provide implications for policymakers and educators for entrepreneurship development.
