Abstract

Teknolojide yaşanan gelişmeler, tarih boyunca hayatın her alanını çeşitli şekillerde dönüştürmüştür. Sanayi devrimleri de toplumsal hayatın tüm alanlarını etkisi altına almış ve dünya ekonomi ve sanayi hayatının dönüm noktaları olmuştur. Endüstri 4.0 olarak da ifade edilen Dördüncü Sanayi Devrimi, bir dijital dönüşüm sürecini ifade etmektedir. Dijital dönüşüm, ekonomileri etkilemekte ve dönüştürmektedir. Dijital dönüşüm kavramı beraberinde dijital sürdürülebilirlik gibi yeni kavramları da gündeme getirmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, dijital dönüşümün ekonomiye ve sürdürülebilir kalkınmaya etkilerini değerlendirmektir. Bu amaçla, dijital dönüşüm kavramı Birleşmiş Milletler 2030 Sürdürülebilir Kalkınma Hedefleri perspektifinde araştırılmıştır. Yöntemsel olarak, öncelikle literatür taraması yapılmıştır. Literatür bulguları, konuya ilişkin farkındalığın artmakta olduğuna işaret etmektedir. Bu bağlamda, çalışmanın sonuçları dijital dönüşümün sürdürülebilir kalkınma ile aolumlu bağlantısı olan bir değişim süreci olduğunu göstermektedir.
