Abstract
This article analyzes the importance of the “Green Campus” model in ensuring
sustainable development in higher education institutions. During the research, the
advantages of this model were examined based on environmental, economic, and social
aspects. Furthermore, foreign and local experiences were studied, existing problems
were identified, and proposals for their elimination were developed. The results show
that the green campus model is an important tool for effectively organizing the
activities of higher education institutions and developing environmental culture.
