The aim of the research is looking at both human capital and green skills in relation to sustainable development, as environmentally sustainable growth is one of the urgent and critical goals for all.

Green jobs among other components of sustainable and green growth emerge as a result of commitment towards environmental sustainability. That, in particular, comes from the transition to greener forms of production, distribution, and consumption as a source of long-term benefits in the form of reduced environmental damage and new opportunities for economic development.

Another question comes with the term "green" skills which is closely related to green jobs and not only.

It should be looked at from the point of industries where the green transition is taking place and factors such as job tasks, formal education requirements, and the professional pathways through which employees acquire and carry know-how.

The research aims to investigate the green skills needed in Central Asian on its way to a green economy transition and what policy in developing the human capital can be implemented in boosting this process.
