Abstract: This study is about understanding how the values of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are integrated into regional development strategies in Indonesia. The aim of this research is to analyze the connection between the principles of the SDGs and elements of regional development. Data collection was conducted using the secondary data of SDG success indicators from 17 provinces in Indonesia, which were combined with the vision, mission, and regional development programs in the Regional Development Plan (RDP). We applied a content analysis of political, legal, fiscal, and administrative arrangements in the concept of localizing the SDGs. As a country that upholds the principle of autonomy and has committed to localizing the SDGs, Indonesia appears unable to promote sustainable development in the context of regional development strategies. Economic elements and governance remain the main paradigms of regional development. The very broad dimensions of sustainable development with limited resources mean that the regional development’s focus can only cover a small part of the SDGs. Therefore, multiparty support is crucial to strengthening the nuances of the SDGs in regional development strategies and localizing the norm of the SDGs is very important to strengthening the achievement of the SDGs in regional development.
