Abstract: The development of environmental problems, the emergence of environmental crises and catastrophes, and the rise in global problems observed today need immediate resolution. The issues related to the human factor and its activation in innovative development play an important role in the development of programs for socio-economic development of the country, the deepening of reforms. This article provides views on the development of competitive training for innovation in the context of globalization, increasing the prestige of scientific work, as well as scientifically based recommendations for capacity building. The reason for applying the cluster approach in the context of this work is the absence of effective organizational and economic mechanisms of interaction between special protection enterprises, enterprises for the production of environmentallyoriented products, processing enterprises, trading companies, authorities and scientific organizations. World experience shows the effectiveness of the creation and functioning of clusters in different segments of the economy. Their common feature is productivity gains in the cluster itself and in related sectors due to the synergistic effect. The analysis shows that clustering is one of the promising models of development and can provide the necessary dynamics of economic growth.
