About

Aggregated data from numerous United Nations Sustainable Development Group (UNSDG) indexes are used to assess the sustainability of various countries' development. This collection of information is ideal for calculating custom sustainability scores, identifying correlations between different indexes and countries, and analysing trends over time. It supports clustering by region and country to uncover developmental patterns.

Usage

This data is well-suited for a variety of analytical tasks. It can be used to calculate a custom overall sustainability score for different countries. Analysts can explore correlations between various socio-economic indexes and national development metrics. The information is also valuable for clustering countries by region or development level to identify common challenges and successes. Furthermore, its time-series nature allows for the examination of developmental evolution over the years. Data visualisation is another key use case.

Coverage

  • Geographic: Global, covering 259 unique countries and territories.
  • Time Range: The data spans from 2002 to 2021.
  • Demographic: Data is aggregated at the country level.
