The United Nations have announced 17 Sustainable Development Goals and 169 targets, which are indivisible and integrated, and which balance the economic, social, and environmental dimensions of sustainable development. This indicates that the performance of successful nations is generally good across many sustainability indicators. Our results, based on multi-criteria and statistical analysis across 173 countries, suggest an interconnection between a country's sustainability 12 indicators and success. This article focuses on the Country Success and Sustainability (CSS) Maps and Models of the World, which show that improvements in environmental, social, and economic sustainability indicators lead to improvements in the country's success, and vice versa. The CSS Models explain 98.2% of national success and 80.8% of the three dimensions of average sustainability dispersions. When a nation's success increases by 1%, the 12 indicators of the three dimensions of sustainability improve by 0.85% on average. The human development index and GDP per capita were the success variables with the most substantial impact on 12 sustainability indicators in 173 countries. Calculations made using equal and different weights of 17 criteria show a deviation of 5.34% for the priorities of these 173 countries.
联合国已经宣布了 17 项可持续发展目标和 169 项具体目标,这些目标不可分割且相互关联,平衡了可持续发展的经济、社会和环境层面。这表明成功国家的表现通常在许多可持续发展指标上都很好。我们的研究结果基于对 173 个国家的多标准和统计分析,表明一个国家的可持续性 12 项指标与其成功之间存在相互关联。本文重点介绍了全球国家成功与可持续性(CSS)地图和模型,这些模型表明,环境、社会和经济可持续性指标的改善会导致国家成功的提高,反之亦然。CSS 模型解释了 98.2%的国家成功和 80.8%的三个维度的平均可持续性分散。当一个国家的成功增加 1%时,三个维度的 12 项可持续性指标平均提高 0.85%。人类发展指数和人均国内生产总值是对 173 个国家的 12 项可持续性指标产生最重大影响的成功变量。使用 17 项标准的相同和不同权重进行的计算表明,这些 173 个国家的优先事项存在 5.34%的偏差。
