Intending to support the government of Uzbekistan with the implementation of an economic green growth model for the country, this document presents a suggested definition of ‘green jobs’ in the agriculture and forestry sector. The suggested definition considers the priorities listed in the country’s green strategy, the significant amount of people engaged in informal employment in this sector, and the government plans to develop a ‘green’ program for developing entrepreneurship in activities based on natural resource management.
