Abstract

Ekonomik İşbirliği ve Kalkınma Teşkilatı (OECD) yeşil büyüme konusunda önde gelen aktördür. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, OECD ülkelerinin yeşil büyüme durumlarını ve ilerlemelerini analiz etmektir. Analizde Küresel Yeşil Büyüme Enstitüsü tarafından önerilen Yeşil Büyüme Endeksi 2022 kullanılmıştır. Analize 34 OECD ülkesi dahil edilmiştir. OECD ülkeleri yeşil büyüme endeksi, yeşil büyüme endeksinin boyutları ve göstergeleri kullanılarak incelenmiştir. OECD ülkelerinin yeşil büyüme konusundaki ilerlemelerini analiz etmek için tanımlayıcı istatistikler ve kümeleme analizi kullanılmıştır. Bu çalışma, OECD ülkelerinin yeşil büyüme açısından ilerlemelerini, ihtiyaçlarını, güçlü ve zayıf yönlerini belirlemeye çalışmaktadır.

EXAMINING GREEN GROWTH CONDITIONS AND ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE OECD COUNTRIES: A DESCRIPTIVE ANALYTICAL APPROACH

Abstract

The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is the leading actor for green growth. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the green growth conditions and achievements of the OECD countries. The Green Growth Index 2022 proposed by the Global Green Growth Institute is used in the analysis. 34 OECD countries are included in the analysis. The OECD countries are examined using green growth index, the dimensions and indicators of green growth index. Descriptive statistics and cluster analysis are used to analyze green growth achievement of the OECD countries. This study tries to identify achievements, needs, strengths and weaknesses of the OECD countries in terms of green growth.
