СТИМУЛИРОВАНИЕ ЗЕЛЁНОЙ ЭКОНОМИКИ ЧЕРЕЗ СТРАТЕГИЧЕСКИЕ ГОСУДАРСТВЕННЫЕ ЗАКУПКИ

Аннотация

This article examines how Strategic Public Procurement (SPP) can be used to stimulate the green economy, focusing on both global practices and the specific context of Uzbekistan. Internationally, SPP has proven effective in driving sustainable innovation and reducing environmental impacts. The study analyzes best practices from the EU, OECD, and UN frameworks, and contrasts them with Uzbekistan’s current procurement system. Despite progress in green policy, Uzbekistan’s use of SPP remains limited. This paper identifies key gaps and proposes actionable reforms to align procurement with green development goals, offering a pathway to sustainable economic growth. Effective implementation of SPP in Uzbekistan could catalyze environmental innovation, support green SMEs, and reinforce the country’s commitments under the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The research emphasizes the need for legal reforms, capacity building, and financial incentives to enable this transition. Keywords: green economy, sustainable development, Uzbekistan, environmental policy, public sector innovation, green public procurement, policy reform, sustainable public finance.
