Purpose
This study aims to examine the impact of Covid-19 on social and eco-environmental sustainability. It will also investigate the effect of advanced technologies in the post-pandemic era.
Design/methodology/approach
To get the robust findings, GMM (Generalized Method of Moments) modeling is employed on the panel data of 50 countries across the globe.
Findings
The outcomes indicate that gross fixed capital, logistical operations, knowledge spillover are positive, while Covid-19 is negatively associated with international trade. The results also revealed that Covid-19 spurs poverty and vulnerable employment, while the fertility rate increase creates pressure on economic growth. Also, fossil fuel and energy consumption contribute to carbon emission, while green and advanced technologies may mitigate the environment's adverse effects.
Originality/value
This study is the first of its kind to provide a solution to the challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic in the post-pandemic environment. Furthermore, researchers, managers and legislators can use this article's findings to formulate relevant policies for post-pandemic.

用数字技术应对大流行后的挑战:一项实证研究
目的
本研究旨在检验 Covid-19 对社会和生态环境可持续性的影响。它还将调查先进技术在大流行后时代的影响。
设计/方法/方法
为了获得稳健的结果,对全球 50 个国家的面板数据采用 GMM(广义矩量法)建模。
发现
结果表明,固定资本总额、物流运营、知识溢出是积极的,而 Covid-19 与国际贸易呈负相关。结果还显示,Covid-19 刺激了贫困和脆弱的就业,而生育率的增加对经济增长造成了压力。此外,化石燃料和能源消耗会导致碳排放,而绿色和先进技术可以减轻环境的不利影响。
原创性/价值
这项研究首次为大流行后环境中 Covid-19 大流行带来的挑战提供解决方案。此外,研究人员、管理者和立法者可以利用本文的研究结果制定大流行后的相关政策。
