<![CDATA[Research Aims: The increasingly pressing issue of global sustainability has increased the need for mastery of green competencies as critical competencies in the fields of education, organization, and environmental governance. However, until now, there are still limitations in systematic studies that analyze the trends and characteristics of global research related to green competencies. This study aims to identify international research trends, key actors, dominant terminology, patterns of collaboration between institutions and across countries, and recent developments in the study of green competencies by applying bibliometric analysis. Methodology: This study employs bibliometric analysis, utilizing a dataset comprising 346 Scopus-indexed articles published between 2014 and 2024. The data were processed using VOSviewer and Biblioshiny software integrated with R Studio to generate visualizations, including co-authorship, co-citation, bibliographic coupling, and overlay network analyses. Research Findings: The findings show that publications on green competencies have increased significantly since 2015, with Sustainability Switzerland, Journal of Cleaner Production, and Business Strategy and The Environment being the most productive journals (Figure 2). Dominant keywords include "sustainability development" and "green competencies" (Table 2, Figure 3). Countries such as China and the United States dominate publication contributions (Figure 4, Table 3), while institutions in several Malaysian countries are the centers of research productivity (Table 4). Networks of co-citation and bibliographic coupling show limited global collaboration across institutions (Figure 8). Research limitations and implications: This research makes a significant contribution to mapping the epistemic landscape of green competencies and encourages the development of collaborative approaches across sectors. The findings are helpful for policymakers, academics, and educational practitioners in designing strategies to strengthen green competencies across various sectors.]]>
