Overview

Data-driven analysis quantifies ICTs' impact on sustainable development in MENA, suggesting cleaner energy enhances benefits.

Key Points

  • This research aims to quantify the contributions of ICTs to sustainable development in the MENA region, focusing on Tunisia.
  • Utilized a country-year panel data from 2000 onwards based on World Development Indicators.
  • Applied panel econometrics and a data-driven fuzzy inference system for analysis.
  • Constructed a Fuzzy Net-Sustainability Gain (FNSG) index from selected indicators.
  • Explored associative effects influenced by electricity mix and access conditions.
  • Performed a case study on Tunisia, examining current levels and future scenarios.
  • The net sustainability effect of ICTs varies based on the electricity mix and access conditions.
  • Cleaner energy sources correlate with more positive sustainability outcomes.
  • Hindrances from carbon-intensive energy grids and access limitations dampen potential gains.
  • Increasing renewable energy and broadband access in Tunisia shows significant net sustainability improvements.
  • Findings remained consistent across different analytical approaches and scenarios.
