Summary/Abstract: Research activities play a critical role in facilitating growth and promoting sustainable development. However, the scientific interest level in the European Green Deal in Central Asia remains uncertain. Therefore, this research paper aims to define the interest of Central Asian researchers in the Green Deal. A literature review was conducted using the bibliographic analysis method for Web of Science publications published over 2018-2023 and originating from Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan. Co-occurrence analysis of keywords and co-authorship analysis were performed using the VosViewer 1.6.19 software. The co-occurrence analysis revealed that the Green Deal is a complex and interdisciplinary issue that highlights the importance of collaboration among stakeholders and researchers from different sectors. The co-authorship analysis identified the patterns of collaboration among authors, with many working with international partners. The distribution of publications and citations varied across different countries and keywords related to environmental and sustainability topics. It was also found that the number of publications has been increasing. Finally, correlation and regression analysis were applied to identify the factors that influence publication activity about the Green Deal.
