Abstract

The transition to a Circular Economy (CE) represents a critical pathway for sustainable development, yet the participation of women in CE enterprises remains constrained by systemic gendered barriers, particularly in access to specialized green finance. This study investigates how gendered access to green capital influences women’s engagement, decision-making, and scaling capacity in CE initiatives across Indonesia. Using survey data from 400 respondents and applying Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), the analysis examines the direct effects of institutional fairness and financial capability on women’s participation, as well as the mediating role of credit constraints. Findings reveal that equitable institutional frameworks and enhanced financial capabilities significantly increase women’s participation in CE enterprises, while limited access to green capital remains a critical barrier. The results underscore the importance of integrating gender-sensitive policies within climate finance mechanisms to ensure an inclusive and effective CE transition. This research contributes to the intersectional literature on gender, finance, and sustainability, offering actionable insights for policymakers, development practitioners, and financial institutions aiming to foster equitable green economic growth.

Abstract

Small Island Developing States (SIDS) face acute vulnerabilities in marine-dependent livelihoods due to declining fish stocks, environmental degradation, and limited economic diversification. While Digital Marine Technologies (DMTs) have been proposed as tools to enhance productivity and sustainability, the integrated mechanisms linking DMT adoption to livelihood outcomes remain under-explored, particularly the role of institutional support in moderating these effects. Addressing this gap, the present study examines how DMTs contribute to small-island livelihood resilience through economic and environmental pathways. Employing a quantitative cross-sectional survey design, data were collected from 750 respondents comprising small-scale fishers and cooperative managers across representative SIDS communities. The study tested complex relationships using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), allowing for simultaneous assessment of direct, mediated, and moderated effects within the proposed conceptual framework. The results indicate that DMT adoption exerts a significant positive direct effect on small-island livelihoods. Further, Productivity and Sustainable Practices were confirmed as significant mediators, demonstrating that technological benefits materialize through both enhanced economic performance and improved resource stewardship. Importantly, the positive impact of DMTs on livelihoods is strengthened under conditions of high Institutional Support, highlighting the conditional nature of technology effectiveness in these contexts. The study contributes theoretically by validating an integrated framework in which technological adoption, livelihood gains, and environmental sustainability are mutually reinforced and contingent on governance quality. Practically, the findings underscore that policy interventions in SIDS must go beyond technology provision, prioritizing institutional development, infrastructure investment, and capacity building to ensure equitable and sustainable livelihood improvements.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the influence of perceived risk, user experience, perceived security, platform credibility, and accessibility on the intention to use digital job portals among users with disabilities. The study adopts a quantitative research approach using a survey method involving 200 respondents with disabilities who have experience using digital job portal platforms such as LinkedIn, JobStreet, and Glints. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS software. The findings reveal that perceived risk has a significant negative effect on intention to use, while user experience, perceived security, platform credibility, and accessibility have significant positive effects on intention to use digital job portals. Among all variables, perceived risk emerged as the strongest predictor influencing users’ behavioral intention. The results indicate that accessible, secure, trustworthy, and user-friendly job portal platforms are more likely to encourage digital job portal adoption among users with disabilities. This study contributes to the literature on consumer behavior and digital inclusion by extending technology adoption perspectives into the context of disability-inclusive digital employment platforms.
