The Department of Industrial Management at the College of Administration and Economics, University of Mosul, discussed on Tuesday, July 7, 2026 the Doctoral dissertation entitled: “The Role of Green Manufacturing Practices in Enhancing Circular Economy Strategies: The Mediating Role of Green Knowledge Management Processes,” submitted by the student Bashar Izz al-Din Saeed, in Discussion Hall No. (1).

​The study aimed to test the mediating role of green knowledge management processes in the influential relationship between green manufacturing practices and circular economy strategies, through a field study at the General Company for Electrical and Electronic Industries in Baghdad. This contributes to reinforcing the orientation of industrial organizations toward environmental sustainability and improving resource investment efficiency.

​The study reached a number of conclusions, most notable of which was that green knowledge management processes, as a mediating variable, play an active role in enhancing the impact of green manufacturing practices on circular economy strategies at the macro level. The activation of these processes strengthens the relationship between the two variables, thereby improving resource investment efficiency, reducing waste, and raising environmental sustainability levels, in addition to supporting the implementation of circular economy strategies and delivering products that meet customer needs with higher efficiency.
