VISION & MISSION

The Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) was founded on the belief that economic growth and environmental sustainability are not merely compatible objectives, but are mutually necessary for the future of humankind.

It is dedicated to supporting the creation and diffusion of a new model of economic growth, known as "green growth", that integrates objectives for poverty reduction, opportunity creation, and social development, with objectives for environmental sustainability and climate and energy security.

GGGI supports emerging and developing nations in their efforts to create and implement national and local strategies and policies for pursuing green growth. In so doing, GGGI seeks to contribute to increasing the effectiveness and impact of national and local action on green growth, promoting best practice, building capacity, and encouraging international cooperation. Through its work, GGGI will help advance both the theory and practice of green growth.

As a politically neutral source of independent expertise, GGGI will provide a comprehensive set of capabilities, skills and services aimed at answering key questions related to green growth planning, and play a critical role in the post-Copenhagen landscape.
