# Sustainable Development Goals
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Introduction
|
|||
|
|
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a set of 17 interconnected global goals established by the United
|
|||
|
|
Nations in 2015.
|
|||
|
|
They serve as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure peace and prosperity for
|
|||
|
|
all by 2030.
|
|||
|
|
The SDGs are designed to be a blueprint for achieving a better and more sustainable future.

## Application in Classification of Research Products
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The SDG taxonomy is used to classify research products based on their relevance to the overarching goals. This
|
|||
|
|
classification helps in identifying the impact of research on sustainable development and aligning research efforts
|
|||
|
|
with global priorities. Here’s how it can be applied:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. **Mapping Research Outputs**: Research outputs such as publications are be mapped to specific SDGs based on their
|
|||
|
|
objectives, methodologies, and outcomes.
|
|||
|
|
2. **Evaluating Impact**: The classification allows for the evaluation of the impact of research on achieving the
|
|||
|
|
SDGs, helping to highlight contributions to specific goals.
|
|||
|
|
3. **Funding and Collaboration**: Aligning research with SDGs can attract funding from organizations focused on
|
|||
|
|
sustainable development and foster collaborations with other researchers and institutions working towards
|
|||
|
|
similar goals.
|
|||
|
|
4. **Policy and Decision-Making**: Policymakers can use the classification to identify research that supports
|
|||
|
|
sustainable development policies and make informed decisions based on evidence from relevant research.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
By integrating the SDG taxonomy into the classification of research products, we can ensure that research efforts
|
|||
|
|
are directed towards addressing the most pressing global challenges and contributing to a sustainable future.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Conclusion
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The Sustainable Development Goals provide a comprehensive framework for addressing global challenges. By applying
|
|||
|
|
the SDG taxonomy to classify research products, we can better understand and enhance the impact of research on
|
|||
|
|
sustainable development, ensuring that scientific advancements contribute to a more equitable and sustainable world.
