Abstract: Abstract Due to the spread of the coronavirus over the last 3 years, researchers have conducted numerous studies on the COVID-19, project risk management (PRM), and sustainable development goals (SDGs) topics. In this context, the study aims to identify the most important authors, sources, organizations, and countries contributing to the effect of COVID-19 on PRM and SDGs also to provide researchers with extensive insights into the prominent research trends and gaps in the literature. Therefore, this study analyzes the state of the art in the literature about global trends of the research on COVID-19 risks impact in project risk management and SDGs by using bibliometric analysis. Four hundred thirty-eight studies on COVID-19 risks impact on project risk management and SDGs achievement were published in the WoS database between 2019 and 2022. VOSviewer software was used to analyze the co-occurrence of all keywords, co-authorships analysis, and co-citation analysis for sources. Results show the contribution of authors from 23 countries and 91 keywords were identified and organized in four clusters such as the challenges of project risk management and SDGs implementation during COVID-19, the effect of COVID-19 crisis on good health and well-being goal achievement, the importance of risk perception knowledge in projects environment to keep worker health care, and the effect of COVID-19 on project risk management plan factors.
