One of the key areas of the green economy in Uzbekistan's agriculture is the development of organic farming. The purpose of the article is to develop organic agriculture based on the use of natural methods of crop cultivation, the rejection of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and the use of biological plant protection products. At the same time, in connection with the “green” economy, which is one of the most pressing tasks not only in our country, but also in the world economy, work is underway to develop the green economy in our country and in the world, as well as to analyze international cooperation.

Since 2017, Uzbekistan has undertaken unprecedented reforms in its higher education sector, transforming universities into central actors within the national “Third Renaissance” and the “Uzbekistan–2030” Development Strategy. While these reforms have expanded access, introduced international standards, and diversified institutional structures, a critical gap persists between policy intent and institutional implementation. Therefore, this study investigates how higher education institutions (HEIs) in Uzbekistan manage reform at the institutional level and identifies the structural barriers that hinder long-term global competitiveness. Drawing on theories, the paper conceptualizes strategic management in HEIs as a dynamic interaction between internal resources, external pressures, leadership agency, and stakeholder expectations. Based on this theoretical integration and contextual analysis, the study proposes a context-specific framework built on five strategic pillars: Human Capital, Research Capacity, Educational Differentiation, Internationalization, and Digital Strategy. These pillars provide a practical roadmap for transforming Uzbek universities from administratively managed entities into strategically governed, innovation-driven organizations. The findings demonstrate that global competitiveness in higher education depends not on expansion alone, but on the quality of strategic management within institutions. Bridging the gap between reform legislation and practice requires empowered leadership, professional management structures, and a clear strategic vision.

This article examines the role of renewable energy (RES) as a key driver of the ESG transformation of Uzbekistan's energy sector and industrial clusters. Based on data from international organizations and specialized analytical reviews, the electricity sector's high dependence on natural gas (approximately 76% of generation in 2023) heightens energy security and sustainability risks amid declining gas production and rising electricity demand. An integrated framework for ESG energy transition management (ESG KPIs + scenario-based effects model) is proposed as a methodological solution, focusing on industrial cluster chains (textiles, construction materials, chemicals/metallurgy, and agro-industrial processing). An assessment of the economic effects of replacing gas-fired power generation with RES is conducted under a scenario in which target benchmarks are achieved by 2030 (scaling RES to 21–27 GW and increasing the share of RES in the electricity supply). The results show that the introduction of renewable energy sources in combination with energy efficiency at the cluster level can provide a sustainable economic effect through the release of gas (alternative cost of fuel), a reduction in electricity costs and losses, an increase in investment attractiveness, and access to “green” financing in the logic of the national green taxonomy.
