STRUCTURE ANALYSIS OF SDGs NETWORK BASED ON NEXUS APPROACH

Abstract

 To revieal the nexus of goals, targets and indicators of SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) for achieving SDGs by 2030, we conducted a network and cluster analysis in Japanese prefecture scale using SDGs indicators, and co-occurence analysis of SDGs targets by text mining the SDGs future-cities’ planning in city scale. Based on our analytical experience of SDGs nexus, we proposed a research agenda for better progressing SDGs nexus researches; (1) visualizing the nexus of Japanese SDGs action plans scientifically and provide them to all stakeholders, (2) forming a knowledge transfer platform consists of tempospatially high resolved SDGs indicators and tailor-made recommendation systems, (3) developing tempospatially seamless SDGs indicators tracking system with bigdata and data science technology, (4) designing the lookup-logic for very easily convering conventional strategic plans to SDGs-oriented plans, (5) establishing open science platform for SDGs nexus researches by Goal 17: Partnership for the Goals.
