description This study explores the evolving field of knowledge sharing and green innovation, focusing on its growing importance as a driver of sustainable practices. Despite significant advancements in understanding specific green innovations, there remains a lack of research on the broader trends and knowledge foundations underpinning this domain. To address this gap, a systematic literature review was conducted, analyzing publications from the past decade to identify key trends, influential contributors, theoretical frameworks, and research methodologies in this area. The study employed the PRISMA protocol to ensure a rigorous and replicable review process. The study identified 139 articles published between January 2014 and September 2024 and conducted a review using performance analysis, bibliometric analysis, and content analysis as methodological approaches. Findings highlight significant growth in research output, with notable contributions from specific journals, authors, and countries. The review also uncovers the prevalent use of certain theoretical frameworks, key variables, and data analysis tools, while identifying areas that suggest the need for further exploration. This study contributes to the literature by offering a consolidated view of research in the domain. It also facilitates future research directions by identifying trends and gaps. In doing so, it provides practical insights for businesses to design knowledge-sharing strategies that support green innovation, and for policymakers to develop informed sustainability frameworks aligned with collaborative innovation practices.
