Enhancing green productivity in less developed countries - Productivity - 65(4), Jan-Mar, 2025: p.349-356

Green productivity transforms economic growth and environmental sustainability, making it crucial for less developed countries (LDCs). This article discusses green productivity in these locations, where resource limits, fast urbanization, and fragile ecosystems typically hinder development. LDCs can boost industrial productivity and reduce environmental damage by adopting eco-friendly technologies, sustainable practices, and capacity-building. Case examples demonstrate how innovation, public-private partnerships, and international cooperation promote sustainable development through green productivity initiatives. Policy support, financial mechanisms, and community engagement are needed to balance expansion with environmental stewardship. This report concludes that green productivity is an ecological necessity and a path to developing nations’ egalitarian and resilient economic growth.- Reproduced
