This article examines the impact of green investments on economic growth in developing countries. In the
context of increasing global environmental challenges, green investments—such as renewable energy, energy-efficient
technologies, and sustainable infrastructure—are becoming a key driver of long-term economic development. The
study analyzes the theoretical foundations of the green economy, exploring how environmentally friendly investments
contribute to sustainable production, job creation, and technological innovation. Using comparative data from several
developing countries, the paper highlights the positive correlation between green capital inflows and GDP growth, as well
as the improvement of social welfare indicators. The findings suggest that well-designed green investment policies can
help developing countries achieve a balance between economic expansion and environmental protection. The article
concludes with policy recommendations for enhancing green investment frameworks and encouraging private sector
participation to accelerate sustainable growth
