The next decade is crucial for determining the planet’s directionin ensuring that populations can adapt to climate change. This study aims to investigatethe progress, challenges, opportunities, trends, and prospects of the SDGs through a bibliometricanalysis from 2015 to 2022, providing insight into the evolution and maturity ofscientific research in the field. The Web of Science core collection citation database wasused for the bibliometric analysis, which was conducted using VOSviewer and RStudio.We analyzed 12,176 articles written in English to evaluate the present state of progress, aswell as the challenges and opportunities surrounding the SDGs. This study utilized a varietyof methods to identify research hotspots, including analysis of keywords, productiveresearchers, and journals. In addition, we conducted a comprehensive literature review byutilizing the Web of Science database. The results show that 31% of SDG-related researchproductivity originates from the USA, China, and the UK, with an average citation perarticle of 15.06. A total of 45,345 authors around the world have contributed to the field ofSDGs, and collaboration among authors is also quite high. The core research topics includeSDGs, climate change, Agenda 2030, the circular economy, poverty, global health, governance,food security, sub-Saharan Africa, the Millennium Development Goals, universalhealth coverage, indicators, gender, and inequality. The insights gained from this analysiswill be valuable for young researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and public officialsas they seek to identify patterns and high-quality articles related to SDGs. By advancingour understanding of the subject, this research has the potential to inform and guidefuture efforts to promote sustainable development. The findings indicate a concentration ofresearch and development on SDGs in developed countries rather than in developing andunderdeveloped countries. 收起
