Based on the panel data of 82 countries from 2000 to 2020, this paper constructs an indicator system of inclusive green growth level, measures their inclusive green growth index (IGGI) using the fixed-base range entropy weighting method. It analyzes the temporal and spatial evolution and regional heterogeneity of IGGI, and evaluates its coupling coordination degrees. The results indicate that: 1) Inclusive green growth level increased in all 82 countries in 2000-2020. The average value of IGGI in each country rose from 0.226 in 2000 to 0.302 in 2020 with clear regional variations, which indicated a spatial distribution of "high in the west and low in the east". 2) From the perspective of spatial distribution, there is spatial correlation among IGGI of different countries, showing obvious high-high clustering and low-low clustering. The "high-high" cluster areas are mainly located in developed countries, and the "low-low" cluster areas are mainly located in countries with relatively backward development level. 3) In regard to regional variability, the level of inclusive green growth in high-income and high-level human development countries is significantly higher than that in low-income and low-level human development countries. In 2020, the average value of IGGI of high-income countries was 0.379, while the average value of IGGI of high-level human development countries was 0.328. The average value of IGGI of low-income countries was 0.229, the average value of IGGI of low-level human development countries was 0.251. 4) From the perspective of the sub-dimensional indices, the economic growth index (EGI) and the social equity index (SEI) of sub-dimension trends are generally on the rise, and the SEI is significantly higher than that of the IGGI, indicating a positive development trend. However, the trend of the environmental sustainability index (ESI) remains relatively stable and significantly lower than that of the IGGI, EGI and SEI, indicating poor development conditions and the need for improvement. 5) The results of the measurement indicate that the coupling degree and coupling coordination degree of the "economic-social-environmental" system remain at a low level. There is still an imbalance development phenomenon.
