Green growth is a balanced clear that different organizations, both within Rwanda advance of economic growth and environmental and internationally, use different terminology and sustainability, integrating social, economic and meanings, making a common understanding of every environmental policies. concept difficult. In order to meet the objectives for this report, we need to define the elements of growth Green Growth is therefore a subset of general and green growth that we will treat as in scope. We economic growth. There are two ways of viewing therefore need to define certain terms. Green Growth: Growth • Growth that is greener than a Business as Usual (BAU) approach to development, which requires a Growth is any economic activity that adds value to conscious decision to choose greener technologies the economy by: even where the initial resource cost is greater (while noting that the cost may not be greater when wider • using factors of production (labor and capital) considerations – externalities such as the value of to add value to inputs to produce products and carbon savings or improvements in social welfare services for sale inside or outside Rwanda, are factored in). • increasing productive capital (agricultural or • The development of specific green industries (e.g. industrial investment, etc.), renewable energy source electricity generation or sustainable construction materials). • increasing human and social capital where there is a measurable improvement in productive potential However, green growth in Rwanda is not only about (e.g. from improved health, education, etc.) , introducing new aspects of greener technologies and industries that protect the environment while promoting • reducing environmental harm (e.g. reduced land development, it is also about looking at what has already degradation) or been implemented that is protecting and preserving the environment and enhancing development.

The concept of green growth responds to the dual global Green Growth challenges of (1) expanding economic opportunities for a growing population and (2) mitigating the environmental Green growth is a relatively new model of economic pressures that could otherwise undermine our ability growth that is compatible with protecting the to take advantage of these opportunities.
