The purpose of this research is to evaluate the effects of climate change shocks and economic complexity on economic growth, using the panel vector auto-regression model. In this research, the average temperature data and ECI (Economic Complexity Index), which is an indicator of technological progress (Mohammad Mahdi Ahmadian Divkhti et al., 2017), were used for MENA countries in 1995 to 2015. According to the analysis of variance decomposition of economic growth, we found that only 5% of changes in economic growth are related to climate change. So it can be resulted that the effect of climate change on economic growth is limited, but this effect is positive and significant. The effect of climate change shock (temperature changes) on the economic complexity index, according to the results of shock response functions is as follows: with the shock of temperature changes, the response of the economic complexity index is very high, positive and significant.
