Abstract

While the body of literature addressing community development and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is expanding, a comprehensive analysis of its evolving trends and development is currently lacking. This research aims to bridge this knowledge gap by providing a multifaceted bibliometric overview of the literature on community development and SDGs. To analyze the nexus, we utilized a dataset of 5713 publications. The study is divided into two parts: the first part reflects on the initial response to the introduction of the SDGs as a new global development framework by the United Nations (UN) from 2015 to 2019; the second part focuses on the developments and responses from 2019 to 2023. The analysis revealed sustained prominence of keywords “sustainable development goals,” “sustainability,” “climate change,” and “community.” The research identified significant subject domains, showcasing the imperative of sustainable energy, the link between well-being and community progress, and the growing recognition of community resilience.
