Green Growth Indicators

Green Growth Indicators (GGIs) characterize the processes of greening the economy through the conservation and rational use of natural resources and the impact of these processes on the development of the social sphere.

GGIs have been produced in compliance with the Guide for the EU Eastern Partnership countries “Measuring the Green Transformation of the Economy” prepared by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).

GGIs are divided into five groups:

• socio-economic indicators which characterize the development of the economy and social sphere.
• the indicators of the environmental and resource productivity of the economy which characterize environmental and resource efficiency of production and consumption and help to track trends related to the elimination of the dependence between resource consumption and economic growth.
• the natural assets indicators which characterize availability of stocks of renewable and non-renewable resources necessary for economic activity.
• the environmental quality of life indicators which characterize environmental conditions affecting quality of life of the population through air and water pollution, climate change.
• the indicators of the economic opportunities which characterize the support of the government and the role of business as the key stakeholders of green growth.
