Twinning the Green Transition and Digitalization on the Islamic Philanthropy Institutions

Abstract

Islamic philanthropic institutions are now working towards a green transition. Digital technology plays an important role as an enabler. Through literature studies, field studies, interviews, and using nethnography, this chapter explains two things: (1) Describes green transition practices by Islamic philanthropic institutions in Indonesia; (2) Describes the extent to which the institution is utilizing digital technology in a green transition. By taking case studies on three institutions that have worked in the Green Eligible Sector, this chapter provides an overview of their twin green transition and digitalization. Islamic philanthropic institutions have done green crowdfunding through digital green branding, digital green promotion, digital green marketing, digital green fundraising, and digital green payments for supporting their green transition programs. By partnerships with deep technology providers, they can expand into green production and processing areas. Through the Islamic Quadruple Helix, the institutions can transform into a digitally-enabled society.
