Abstract
In the 21st century, many global challenges such as the instability of economic development, social inequality of the population, climate change have escalated and posed a significant threat to the achievement of sustainable development goals. As is known, until recently, in many countries of the world, the model of accelerated build-up of productive forces was dominated by the extensive use of natural resources, which causes great damage to the environment. Thus, the implemented model of increasing production essentially provided "growth without development." Such a development model is typical for many developing countries, including the countries of the post-Soviet space, including Uzbekistan. Therefore, the world community has come to the conclusion that it is necessary to search for ways of economic growth that do not increase the burden on natural resources and move to a new model of sustainable development. Uzbekistan is currently receiving close attention from the international community and the country is striving to ensure the sustainability of development not only through the use of rich natural resources, but also through the transition to innovative development based on the principles of the "green economy". Only on this basis is it possible to achieve the goals of sustainable development in Uzbekistan.
