Abstract

The green economy is a concept that seeks to ensure sustainable development, in which economic growth is in sync with environmental protection. Innovative educational approaches can foster the knowledge and skills needed to build a sustainable economy. This article examines some of the most effective innovations in education that support the green economy. Project-based learning is an approach that allows students to work on real-world problems and cases. By participating in projects related to sustainable development and the green economy, students can gain practical experience and develop innovations that address specific societal needs. The green economy encompasses a number of fields, including economics, sustainable development, environmental sciences, and social sciences. Interdisciplinary learning allows for the combination of knowledge from different disciplines, which provides a more complete understanding of the concept of a green economy. Experiential learning includes practical activities and internships that allow students to interact with the real world. Through internships in companies operating in the green economy sector, students can gain valuable knowledge and skills that they will apply in their future careers.
