Abstract

This paper aims to establish a technologically advanced and environmentally sustainable country that efficiently utilizes resources, fosters citizen participation, and stimulates economic development to transform a Smart Bangladesh. This review study, based on the PRISMA framework, seeks to analyze the elements, technologies, difficulties, and governmental approaches. Researchers conducted a systematic evaluation of relevant papers and studies to thoroughly analyze the present status and future potential of Smart Bangladesh. The researchers utilized the PRISMA 2020 platform to identify and choose relevant 150 studies and 17 reports from indexed publications, including Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, DOAJ, and other sources. The key findings of this paper highlight the importance of constructing a nation that is both technologically advanced and environmentally sustainable nation. Bangladesh encompasses a holistic perspective on the advancement of technology, efficient utilization of resources, active involvement of its citizens, and effective implementation of government regulations. The assessment examines the fundamental elements of a technologically advanced Bangladesh, including developing technology, encountered obstacles, and governmental measures employed to realize this objective. The relevance of this comprehensive review contributes to a deeper understanding of the potential opportunities and obstacles associated with the process of transitioning towards a smart nation.
