Global Green Growth Institute

GGGI
Seoul, South Korea

GGGI was founded on the belief that economic growth and environmental sustainability are not merely compatible objectives; their integration is essential for the future of humankind. GGGI is dedicated to pioneering and diffusing a new model of economic growth known as "green growth," that simultaneously targets key aspects of economic performance: poverty reduction, job creation, social inclusion, and environmental sustainability, such as mitigation of climate change, biodiversity loss and security of access to clean energy and water. GGGI is a new kind of international organisation, interdisciplinary, multi-stakeholder and driven by emerging and developing countries.
