How Dalarna University Publications Address the SDGs
Academic publications can be connected to sustainable development and the UN's 17 Global Goals (also known as SDGs - Sustainable Development Goals). It is up to you, the researcher, to determine whether your research relates to one of these.
You can read more about the goals on The Global Goals website. On the Scopus database webpage, you can find every Dalarna University publication that is connected to one or more sustainable development goals, grouped according to the 17 global goals. On the Staff Web is information on how to connect your publications to the SGDs.
