description | The United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), adopted in 2015, are a universal call to action to eliminate poverty, protect the environment, and foster global peace and prosperity by 2030. This paper conducts a crucial bibliometric analysis of research publications related to the SDGs from 2015 to 2022, aiming to assess current knowledge, identify trends, and address research gaps. Using a dataset of 2227 research publications from the Web of Science database, the study reveals a significant increase in research focusing on the SDGs, reflecting growing awareness of global challenges. Moreover, there is a noticeable trend in interdisciplinary research, highlighting the need for collaborative solutions across diverse fields. Encouragingly, developing countries demonstrate a growing interest in the SDGs, indicating a collective global commitment to sustainable development and addressing issues affecting vulnerable populations. The implications of this research are extensive, providing valuable insights for policymakers, researchers, and stakeholders to better understand the current state of SDG knowledge and prioritize future research efforts and resource allocation effectively, ultimately working towards achieving the SDGs by 2030. |
