Abstract | ||
This study sought to elucidate the impact of both education and entrepreneurship on sustainable development across its economic, social, and environmental dimensions in Egypt during the period 2000-2023. The methodologies employed included Linear Regression Models (ARDL), Granger Causality, and Kernel Regularized Least Squares (KRLS). The findings indicated that all variables related to education and entrepreneurship support the economic dimension in Egypt, as represented by the average per capita Gross Domestic Product at constant prices. The results further demonstrated a positive influence of education and entrepreneurship on the social dimension (life expectancy at birth), particularly regarding technical and secondary education. Conversely, a negative impact of entrepreneurship on the environmental dimension was observed, manifested in an increase in average per capita carbon emissions, underscoring the need for greater attention and the implementation of green policies to safeguard the environment. As the causality test also revealed a positive relationship between the number of students in vocational education and the average per capita GDP, as well as the number and density of companies, and a reduction in carbon emissions. This demonstrates the link between education, entrepreneurship, and sustainable development. The more attention paid to technical education and supporting students' skills and experience, the greater the number and density of companies, which in turn leads to increased output and sustainable economic growth. | ||
