Abstract

The objective of the research was to examine the impact of Green Knowledge Management (GKM) on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Green Innovation (GI) in Algerian economic firms. Data were gathered from lower, middle, and upper-level managers in both small, medium and large manufacturing and service firms situated in five cities in Algeria. The data were examined through structural equation modeling (SEM) to investigate how (GKM) processes (creation of green knowledge, acquisition, sharing, and application) impact (SDGs) (environmental, social, and economic sustainability) and (GI) (green technology, management innovation). According to the results, (GKM) significantly impacts both (SDGs) and (GI). The dimensional analysis indicated that, with the exception of acquiring green knowledge and its application, which showed an insignificant impact on green innovation. Finally, firm size and industry type were examined concerning (SDGs) and (GI). Regarding (SDGs), firm size presented significant positive results. However, an insignificant result was found for firm size concerning (GI). Similarly, the role of industry type was examined in relation to (SDGs) and (GI), revealing significant results for both paths.
