The significance of consumer protection in achieving sustainable development goals is a critical element in stimulating a more dynamic and competitive digital economy. Consumers are the major economic participants in the economy with an active role in the digital marketplace, the participation of responsible platforms' businesses, and the empowerment of responsible consumers contribute directly toward achieving sustainable development goals.
