Abstract

The study aims to find the relationship between internal auditing of the quality of sustainability reports and the quality of financial reports after auditing, and the extent to which banks respond. Based on the changes resulting from stakeholders and their pressures on an ongoing basis  To come to the conclusion that the preparation of high-quality sustainability reports has a significant positive correlation with the quality of financial reports after auditing, the correlation between the quality of sustainability reports and the quality of financial reports after audit is conditional on the quality of the audit process. The results of the study showed that Islamic banks rely on reporting principles that focus on the quality of sustainability reports and these principles are particularly important for stakeholders to determine the quality of sustainability reports. the quality of the audit process has an impact on improving the quality of sustainability and financial reports by increasing confidence and credibility of accounting information and the absence of errors, and manipulating accounts, which improves the quality of information, leading to its reliance on decision-making. The study recommended that Islamic banks conduct internal audits based on "quality control" in order to reach a professional and impartial report by the Internal Audit Department that benefits all stakeholders and shareholders, and to apply the six rules of the principles of quality sustainability reports, through full disclosure of information, statement of impacts, assistance to stakeholders or beneficiary clients in decision-making, identification of procedures and the development of proposed hypotheses for the preparation of such disclosures.

Abstract

Despite the growing interest in the circular economy as a new global model, which emerged out of scarcity of resources, increased consumption and environmental pollution, the process of disclosing its information within sustainability reports still needs research and study. Hence, the research problem raised a question about whether there was an impact of the transition to a circular economy on sustainability reports within the economic, environmental and social dimensions. The aim of the research is to define the concept of circular economy and its impact on sustainability reports, which is the way through which its principles and activities are disclosed in the economic units that adopt it, by focusing on its indicators and their disclosure within (GRI) standards and indicators, and using the descriptive analytical method of the disclosure process and its impact on Sustainability reports, a number of conclusions were reached, the most important of which is the similarity and connection between the circular economy and sustainability, and the need to disclose information about the circular economy within the sustainability reports, because it enriches its information, and that this will help improve the quality of these reports, because it will add necessary information that keeps pace with the new trend in the world Business.

Abstract

This research aims to demonstrate the contribution of internal auditing to help manage and reduce financial risks and achieve financial sustainability. The research included a number of variables to identify risks, their types, the foundations of their management, and the procedures followed to reduce risks. To achieve the research objectives and test its hypotheses, we conducted a case study of the most important financial risks that are likely to face self-financing units in Nineveh Governorate.

The most important results of the study reached by the researcher were the absence of regulations governing the performance of internal auditing to carry out its role in managing and reducing risks, the weakness of the role of internal auditing in achieving financial sustainability, and the lack of a clear program for internal auditing prepared in accordance with sustainability. The study concluded with a number of recommendations, the most important of which are: The necessity of ensuring that there is a plan in each department that includes steps and procedures to reduce the financial risks that may be exposed to and review them continuously. The importance of internal audits directing the unit to prepare reports and data related to sustainability in general and financial sustainability in particular. Internal audit must measure the financial sustainability of financial reporting information through specific quantitative measures

Abstract

The concept of sustainability is concerned with the indicators that can be relied upon in estimating the sustainability of the economy at the macro level and what is related to it.  Financial sustainability, on the other hand , focuses on public debt and its potential positive effects if used efficiently in financing the resource gap, or negative if Limit yourself to financing current consumption.

As far as the matter is concerned with the Iraqi economy, the rentier nature of the economy has spared the economy from resorting to public debt for the purposes of covering the “gap of resources”, and resorting to it was limited in times of crisis, preserving ad hoc attitude, away from its supposed role in achieving sustainable development. The aim of this paper is to examine the economic implications of financial sustainability and its projection on the Iraqi situation, while the research problem was to investigate the economic significance of the indicators in terms of their qualitative difference in the rentier developing economy such as Iraq.   The paper reached conclusions in correspondence with its problem and hypothesis

Abstract

The industrial policy in Iraq after 2003 contributed to the decline in the sustainability component of economic growth And the lack of economic growth in Iraq to the element of sustainability after 2003, as a result of the continued dependence on crude oil, and the decline in the relative importance of the manufacturing sector in the economic structure, and the trends of economic policies and industrial policy contributed to the exacerbation of this result. The strategies and directions that were put forward after 2003 are based on betting on the private sector and market mechanisms to advance this sector in return for excluding the state and limiting its activity to a purely regulatory framework through the adoption of a horizontal industrial policy. This paper calls for the adoption of a rational, realistic approach to address the problems of the industrial sector, based on combining the role of the market and the role of industrial policy. Market mechanisms alone cannot achieve production efficiency and social justice in light of problems and imbalances, and the presence of high unemployment, as well as the deterioration of the business environment and the weakness of the side. Security and its well-known complexities. The desired reform in which the state should play a balanced and integrated role with the market, especially that the local private sector in Iraq, due to its well-known conditions, needs for a long time the state and its support.

Abstract

Given the growing public debt burden and the volatility of global oil prices — the primary source of budget revenues — this study examines the economic impact of public debt on sustainable development in Iraq from 1990 to 2022. Using modern econometric models and quarterly time series data, the research analyzes the relationship between domestic and external public debt, economic growth, and sustainable development.

The study aims to identify the short- and long-term effects of public debt on growth and sustainability and clarify how oil price volatility affects this relationship. The results indicate that domestic debt has a less negative impact than external debt. While external debt supports expenditures in the short term, it increases long-term risks due to repayment obligations. The results also indicate weak links between high debt and sustainable development outcomes, reflecting the inefficient use of borrowed resources. Heavy reliance on oil revenues exacerbates the economy's vulnerability to external shocks. The study concluded with a set of recommendations: adopt wise debt management strategies; direct borrowing toward productive and developmental sectors; enhance transparency and institutional efficiency; diversify the economy to reduce dependence on oil; and cooperate with international financial institutions to design debt sustainability policies consistent with the Sustainable Development Goals.

Abstract

The soul is to be a tool in building a balanced emotional personality, as it searches for means and not ends, as for the most important recommendations for university leaders to pay attention to the sustainability and preservation of relations between employees, seek attention to environmental and technological changes, provide the appropriate organizational climate, follow a work context and take into account the prevailing societal values as a source of intellectual and scientific radiation To reach good performance to support its position in the community, and the continuous urge to adopt professional behavior and interest in building a clear vision that consolidates organizational values in the universities in question

Abstract

This study aimed to analyse the impact of using clean energy on climate change management, by identifying the nature and importance of clean energy, and its impact on reducing or confronting climate change, in addition to highlighting successful experiences in a number of developing and developed countries. The study highlighted the experiences of the UAE and Norway, examining their clean energy policies and their success in leveraging the benefits offered by this use. It demonstrated that successful investment in clean energy not only contributes to reducing carbon emissions, but also supports economic sustainability and enhances countries' resilience to the effects of climate change. The study also highlighted the importance of a clear institutional and legislative framework for the success of these transformations. The study relied on a key hypothesis: the use of clean energy has an impact on climate change management. The study concluded that the use of clean energy represents an effective tool for mitigating emissions and building a sustainable future. Renewable energy sources are characterized by their continuous renewal, and therefore are a continuous and inexhaustible source of energy. Climate change is a rapidly accelerating global phenomenon resulting from carbon emissions resulting from various human activities. Oil-producing countries seeking to achieve sustainability do not seek to abandon oil immediately, but rather adopt long-term strategies based on economic diversification, expanding the share of renewable energy, improving resource efficiency, and developing infrastructure in accordance with global environmental standards. One of the most important recommendations reached by the research is the necessity of providing full support and adopting a gradual strategic approach by governments to shift from dependence on fossil fuels to diversifying energy sources while enhancing investment in clean energy projects, by benefiting from the experiences of countries, especially Norway and the Emirates, which maintained their economic stability during the transition process, as well as the necessity of educating decision-makers and society about the importance of using clean energy as an important option to confront the challenge of climate change and achieve a sustainable future.

Abstract

Public-private partnerships (PPPs) have emerged as a critical mechanism for promoting sustainable development, particularly in the context of higher education institutions. This field study explores the role and impact of PPPs at Future University, focusing on how PPPs contribute to achieving the university's sustainable development goals. The study uses a descriptive approach by distributing (80) questionnaires to Future University staff, which were analyzed using SmartPLS V.4. The results reveal that PPPs at Future University facilitated infrastructure development, enhanced academic programs, and promoted research initiatives aligned with sustainability goals. However, challenges such as aligning stakeholder interests, ensuring long-term commitment, and maintaining transparency were identified as barriers to maximizing the potential of these partnerships. The study concludes that while PPPs offer significant opportunities to promote sustainable development in higher education, their success depends on strong governance frameworks, clear communication, and shared value creation among all stakeholders. The study provides recommendations to strengthen existing partnerships and guide future collaborations at Future University and similar institutions.

Abstract

The concept of sustainable development has become a popular slogan in contemporary organizations. Today, it is the central focus of the programs of many governmental and non-governmental organizations, as well as many companies around the world. Sustainable development refers to meeting the needs of individuals without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Here, marketing plays an important role, not only by aligning a company’s strategy with the environment, but also by promoting the importance of implementing this concept. Green marketing relies on the use of promotional methods that focus on the environmental benefits of products and services. By marketing sustainable solutions, companies such as Asia Renewable Energy (the case study) can, according to our research findings, raise environmental awareness among their audiences and encourage consumers to adopt environmentally friendly behaviors. Marketing green products not only promotes the environment but also reflects social values that respect human rights and equality. By applying the principles of sustainability, companies enhance the well-being of society by providing clean, sustainable energy that contributes to reducing pollution and improving the quality of life. Marketing innovations in renewable energy contributes to stimulating demand for these solutions, which enhances the ability of companies to grow sustainably. By focusing on marketing solar, wind or other renewable technologies, companies like Asia Renewable Energy can contribute to the transition to a low-carbon society. Asia Renewable Energy can serve as an excellent example of applying green marketing strategies to support sustainable development. Some of the points that can be highlighted in this study are: Renewable energy products and services The company’s focus on providing clean and sustainable energy solutions, such as solar panels and wind power. Using new or innovative technologies in the field of renewable energy, which enhances its position in the market as an environmentally responsible company. Organizing media campaigns on various platforms to raise awareness about the benefits of renewable energy and its impact on reducing the carbon footprint. Working to support development projects in local communities, such as providing clean energy to remote areas, which enhances its social role. Through these strategies, Asia Renewable Energy can effectively contribute to achieving sustainable development at the environmental and societal levels.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the impact of organizational culture promotion mechanisms on the adoption of environmentally friendly technologies in the Iraqi Ministries of Environment and Industry and Minerals. While the impact of organizational culture has been extensively studied, its specific effect on the adoption of environmentally friendly technologies has not been previously investigated, which constitutes the epistemological problem addressed by this study. Furthermore, the Iraqi environment suffers from a lack of applied studies and empirical evidence related to environmental sustainability. Therefore, this study seeks to answer the central question: What is the impact of organizational culture promotion mechanisms on the adoption of environmentally friendly technologies? This study was conducted in the Iraqi Ministries of Environment and Industry and Minerals. Data were collected from a purposive sample of 110 senior administrative leaders in these ministries.

The study employed an inductive approach and used a descriptive-analytical method to present and analyze its data. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS and Amos software. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was used to verify the quality of the study instrument and model. Descriptive analytical tools such as the arithmetic mean, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation were used to present, analyze, and interpret the study data. Simple regression was used to test the hypotheses.

The study concluded that the mechanisms adopted to enhance organizational culture constitute an integrated and interconnected system that fosters an organizational environment supportive of adopting environmentally friendly technologies. These mechanisms have a cumulative and interactive impact on promoting environmental values ​​and transforming them from mere theoretical concepts into daily organizational practices. When leadership adopts exemplary environmental behaviors and expresses a clear commitment, designs reward systems to encourage green practices, creates a flexible organizational culture adaptable to technological changes, uses rituals and symbols that reinforce environmental identity, and provides training programs that develop environmental awareness and skills, they collectively create a profound cultural shift. This shift makes the adoption of environmentally friendly technologies not merely a response to external demands, but an integral part of the organizational identity and an automatic behavior for employees at all levels.

Abstract

     With increasing environmental pressures and resource scarcity, the transition from the linear “take-make-dispose” model to a circular production system (CPS) has become a strategic necessity for companies. This research addresses the circular production system not only as an environmental initiative, but also as a catalyst for achieving sustainable competitive advantage. The research aims to contribute to bridging the gap between organizational behavior literature and sustainability strategy, highlighting how employee perceptions at the micro and macro levels of the company influence competitive advantage, guided by the research question “How do Bwer employees view the role of circular production systems in building sustainable competitive advantage?” This research examines the perceptions of Bwer employees regarding the relationship between adopting a circular production system and enhancing competitive advantage. A descriptive analytical approach was used, with a structured questionnaire distributed to a targeted sample of 75 employees from various departments, such as operations, marketing, and research and development, using SPSS v.26 software. The results show strong perceived links between circular production systems and improved brand image, resource efficiency, and long-term cost savings through waste reduction and material reuse. However, the challenges identified include high initial costs, the complexity of reverse logistics, and a lack of understanding between different functions, particularly with regard to product innovation outside the research and development department. One of the most important recommendations of the research is to highlight the need to improve communication, training, and incentives to align employee efforts with circular production goals and fully achieve CPS objectives as a driver of lasting competitive success.

This situation negatively impacts the environment and increases the costs of waste disposal and non-biodegradable materials.

To address this, adopting lean manufacturing principles becomes essential, as they focus on reducing waste and improving production efficiency to meet green manufacturing requirements. A questionnaire was designed for data collection and distributed to a sample of employees in the company, with 242 questionnaires collected from a population of 548 individuals. Data analysis was conducted using statistical software (SPSS V.26 - AMOS V.24).

The results supported the research hypotheses and confirmed the positive objectives and validity of the research model, revealing a direct impact of the independent variable (lean manufacturing) through its principles (both collectively and individually) on the dependent variable (green manufacturing) in terms of its requirements (collectively).

Based on these findings, several recommendations were made, the most important of which is that institutions should consider transitioning to a circular economy, where materials and waste are reused in the production process. This approach will help reduce environmental impacts and achieve greater resource sustainability.

Abstract

Given the swift digital changes occurring in the Banking industry, the purpose of this paper is to examine how well artificial intelligence systems can forecast and protect against future disasters.  By utilizing its skills in big data analytics, forecasting financial behavior, and more accurately and effectively managing risks, artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly regarded as a crucial component in the development of banking systems and improving their operational efficiency.

 By enhancing client satisfaction, tailoring banking services to meet the demands of each individual, and cutting down on operational errors and administrative expenses, banks hope to gain a competitive edge by utilizing these technologies.  AI also helps to speed up credit decisions, make it possible to identify financial crime early, and create clever marketing plans based on forecasts of future market trends.

In order to ensure financial sustainability and achieve integration between digital transformation and the demands of banking innovation, studies show that the future of AI encompasses strategic, cultural, human, technological, and organizational dimensions in addition to technical ones.

 The paper also examined a number of anticipated long-term effects of AI applications, such as increased forecasting precision, lower operating expenses, better customer satisfaction, increased worker productivity, and assistance with investment choices.  The findings show that implementing AI applications in the banking sector is a strategic requirement to guarantee long-term growth and competitiveness in the digital era, not a technical luxury.

In order to enhance lending decisions and lower default risks, the paper also assesses how well a number of categorization algorithms work in assessing loan applicants' creditworthiness.  Using a dataset that represented the traits and financial activities of clients, seven machine learning techniques were used: Gradient Boosting, Random Forest, Extra Trees, Gaussian Naive Bayes, Logistic Regression, SVC-RBF, and KNN.

The paper used a database of 21 variables for loan applicants. Numerical variables included (age, income, credit score, debt-to-income ratio, and loan amount). Descriptive variables included (loan purpose, region, marital status, employer, educational level, and application channel). Binary variables included (whether or not the applicant had a history of default). These variables were used to predict the approval or rejection decision, with the dependent variable being represented by two values: 0 for rejection and 1 for approval.

The models were evaluated using the following six key performance indicators: Accuracy, Precision, Recall, F1 Score, Receiver Operating Characteristic Area Under the Curve (ROC AUC), and Brier Score.   The findings demonstrated that the Gradient Boosting algorithm performed best overall in both probability prediction quality and customer differentiation across different risk levels.  The Random Forest algorithm, which showed stability and balanced metrics, came next.  On the other hand, despite its moderate performance, Logistic Regression provided great interpretability, while the Gaussian Naive Bayes algorithm demonstrated high sensitivity in identifying high-risk customers.  In terms of overall accuracy and probability quality, some models—like SVC-RBF and KNN—performed worse.

Abstract

Universities worldwide have recognized the challenges of digital transformation in the face of rapid technological advancements, which have become an integral part of the educational system for all academic programs. This integration brings numerous advantages to all stakeholders in the educational process. Traditional methods, techniques, and tools have become outdated, prompting universities to enter into agreements with specialized global companies in technology, software, and tools. These agreements aim to equip their infrastructure for the educational process across various academic programs and disciplines, building knowledge and skills for students and preparing them for the job market in the era of digital transformation affecting all sectors.

Digital transformation is no longer an option but a necessity for institutions striving to enhance their efficiency and ensure their sustainability. The rapid growth of digital technology, advancements in smart devices and systems, increased data processing capabilities, and artificial intelligence have led to revolutionary changes. Dealing with the digital society requires investment in human resources and competencies possessing digital skills, capabilities, passion, ambition, and dialogue. This entails adopting a comprehensive approach to teaching methods, focusing on future requirements.

As mentioned earlier, digital transformation has become an urgent necessity that educational institutions seek to establish and dedicate. Educational technologies and digital platforms are not just concepts; they are now essential practices for the educational and learning processes. Universities need to leverage digital technologies to improve educational processes and practices, enhance learner and teacher experiences, and support the creation of effective and enduring educational models. Digital transformation helps universities operate more efficiently, remain competitive in global rankings and accreditations, and succeed in preparing learners for digital work environments.

In this context, digitization is a necessity in higher education institutions, attracting top students and improving the experience of courses, educational materials, and training processes in general. It enables monitoring and tracking to identify obstacles and challenges in training and reduce the risk of dropout. However, hesitation in understanding and seizing opportunities to move towards this digital environment still exists. It is essential for digital transformation to align with communication principles, ensuring its commitment to meet the expectations of various groups interested in economic, social, and environmental dimensions.

Abstract

The research aims to analyze the complex paradox between the necessity of expanding the use of clean and renewable energy sources as a primary objective of sustainable development, and the inherent risks associated with using lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) as high-reliability and high-efficiency energy storage devices, given the intermittent nature of renewable energy sources. The research problem was summarized by assessing the capacity and flexibility of international measures and policies aimed at achieving sustainable development in confronting the inherent risks and challenges arising from the use of these batteries. The most prominent findings indicated a significant and growing negative impact on the (social, environmental, and economic) advantages achieved by expanding clean and renewable energy production. Consequently, there are negative repercussions on the (economic, social, and environmental) dimensions of the sustainable development process. The most important recommendations strongly emphasized the necessity of enacting legislation to regulate the management of this type of hazardous waste. Furthermore, they stressed the need for adequate support from stakeholders, particularly producers, to ensure that the current poor regulation and management of these practices do not cast their heavy shadow onto governments in the future, compelling them to deal with the resulting crises.

Abstract

The research aims to evaluate the performance of banks using the PATROL model as a modern model that departs from traditional evaluation models. The model used is considered an early warning tool and includes five indicators: “(capital adequacy, profitability, credit risk, regulation, liquidity).” The research methodology included the use of the descriptive aspect based on books, research, dissertations, and theses, in addition to the use of the analytical aspect through the use of mathematical equations for the indicators of the model used. The research sample represented banks (Sumer Commercial, International Islamic) due to the availability of their data announced in the stock market, in addition to not displaying the research sample to any Violations during its banking work and throughout the research period extending between (2017-2022) for the purpose of making a comparison between them when using the model in evaluating their performance and determining the best in performance. The research hypothesis was proven that the PATROL model can be used in evaluating the performance of commercial and Islamic banks. The research reached a number of conclusions. The most important of which is that using the model helps bank management in identifying the strengths and weaknesses of performance, which helps decision makers develop effective solutions to obstacles and problems in a timely manner. One of the most important main recommendations of the research is directing banks to the necessity of following up on the performance evaluation process to achieve their banking soundness and ensure their sustainability and continuity in the job.

Abstract

The research aims to measure the impact of public budget indicators and institutional quality (the quality of governing institutions in the economy) in reducing public debt for a selected group of Arab countries with renter economies for the period (2002-2023). Two standard models have been built to achieve this goal: The first model focused on measuring the impact of the general budget through its basic indicators represented by public spending and public revenues expressed in tax revenues, with the introduction of the oil price variable as a control variable due to its fundamental importance in explaining the dynamics of public debt in oil economies. The second model focused on measuring the impact of the six institutional quality indicators issued by the World Bank (control of corruption, political stability, government effectiveness, rule of law, voice and issue, and regulatory quality) on public debt. Using static analysis of longitudinal data models represented by its three models (pooled regression model, fixed effects model, and random effects model) for eight Arab oil countries, the research reached a set of results: For general budget indicators, the results showed that reducing public spending can contribute to reducing public debt, while there was no significant effect of oil revenues. While for oil prices, they had an impact in reducing public debt. As for institutional quality indicators, the results showed the impact of (political stability, government effectiveness, voice and issue) on reducing public debt, while the results showed that (control of corruption, rule of law, and regulatory quality) contribute to the accumulation of public debt. Therefore, the results of this research confirm the importance of the financial budget and institutional quality in reducing public debt and its sustainability in the long run.

Abstract

Banks are exposed to many financial risks that arise when the bank faces difficulty in recovering loans from borrowers, which may affect the bank's assets and its ability to meet its obligations. There are also market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates, stock prices, and exchange rates, which negatively impact the value of assets. In addition, there are liquidity risks related to the bank's inability to meet liquidity needs suddenly, such as the withdrawal of deposits or financing loans, which creates challenges in achieving a balance between profitability and liquidity. Non-financial risks to which banks are exposed include operational risks resulting from the failure of internal systems or procedures, and legal risks arising from failure to comply with laws and regulations, which may lead to fines or legal cases. There are also strategic risks resulting from making incorrect decisions that affect the bank's future, in addition to reputational risks related to damage to the bank's image as a result of customer complaints or financial crises. To manage these risks, banks implement multiple strategies such as hedging, diversifying investments, and ensuring the implementation of regulatory requirements. Risk management helps improve the bank's stability and enhance its ability to make sound financial decisions, enabling it to reduce losses. Potential, capital preservation, and long-term sustainability are guaranteed, which increases the level of trust between clients and investors.

Abstract

In recent years, institutions have faced increasing challenges, including resource scarcity, shifting customer expectations regarding service quality, and growing commitments to economic, social, and environmental sustainability. Amid these challenges, international reports, including the 2024 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) report, highlight the limited progress towards achieving the SDGs in Iraq. The report indicates that nearly half of the goals are showing only slight or moderate progress, while more than a third are moving in the opposite direction. This reality underscores the need for continuous improvement in institutional processes, a goal to which Total Quality Management (TQM) contributes by enhancing performance efficiency, optimizing resource utilization, and developing skills. This issue is particularly relevant in Iraq, as the World Bank's SDGs report indicates a performance gap of 34.1%, making an analysis of TQM's role essential to understanding its contribution to bridging this gap. This research aims to analyze the impact of Total Quality Management (TQM) on achieving sustainable development within the Iraqi Ministry of Electricity. This is achieved by measuring the level of TQM implementation and its reflection on performance indicators. The study relied on a sample of 100 department and division managers. A total of 130 questionnaires were distributed, 110 were returned, and 100 valid questionnaires were analyzed using SPSS software. The results showed a clear understanding among the sample of the importance of TQM practices in promoting sustainable development. Furthermore, the results indicated a statistically significant impact of TQM on sustainable development. The study recommends strengthening the adoption of TQM principles within the Ministry of Electricity as a framework for improving processes and enhancing performance efficiency. This will contribute to bridging the performance gap and achieving tangible progress towards sustainable development.

Abstract

The research aims to address the epistemological foundations of green budgeting and compare it with traditional budgeting in terms of principles and fundamentals, as well as the impact of both types of budgeting on the environment and sustainable development. Most countries worldwide are facing significant environmental challenges, necessitating the replacement of traditional fiscal policies with financial policies that integrate environmental goals within economic objectives. The study relies on previous research related to the variables under investigation to describe and analyze budgeting methodologies and compare them. Data were collected based on content analysis of previous studies and recorded observations.The research concludes that green budgeting is an effective tool for achieving sustainable development by integrating environmental policy with the state's financial policy, thereby balancing economic and environmental considerations simultaneously. Additionally, it finds that green budgeting supports the circular economy rather than the linear economy.The study recommends adopting green budgeting as a modern approach to government budget preparation. It also suggests enacting laws and regulations by the legislative authority to support the green budgeting approach, such as imposing environmental standards on government and private sector projects, promoting and supporting investment in environmentally friendly activities, and developing indicators to measure both financial and environmental performance. These indicators would assess progress resulting from green budgeting implementation, such as reductions in carbon emissions and their impact on treatment cost reductions, increased use of renewable energy, and decreased fossil fuel consumption costs.
