Abstract
Morocco's shift toward sustainable development still lacks a coherent strategic framework and explicit direction. Therefore, this study aims to develop an integrated strategic framework for the implementation of effective green growth strategies for Morocco's sustainable development. Thirty‐two indicators were identified and categorized into five groups: environmental, social, governance, financial variability, and technological innovation. The fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) was used to assess and rank the main indicators and their subindicators. Furthermore, within the study, we developed nine green growth strategic solutions for sustainable development. The fuzzy VlseKriterijuska Optimizacija I Komoromisno Resenje (FVIKOR) approach was employed to evaluate and rank the proposed strategic solutions. The FAHP results revealed that environmental, governance, and technological innovation factors are the most pivotal among the five primary categories. Among the subfactors, transparency and disclosure received the top ranking, followed by social community engagement and market volatility. FVIKOR indicated that the most effective strategies for promoting green growth in Morocco include improving transparency and disclosure methods, issuing green bonds, and increasing shareholder engagement. This research provides essential insights for developing effective strategies to foster green growth in Morocco, thereby aiding Morocco's progress in sustainable performance. It also offers practical guidance for policymakers by identifying priority areas improving transparency, expanding green finance, and enhancing stakeholder engagement to accelerate Morocco's green growth and sustainable development efforts.
