Abstract: The purpose of this article is to present the importance of analyzing the concept of economic development and quality of life in the context of sustainable development. The concept of economic development has been debated and approached by economists from the earliest times to the present day, when we witness an intensification and diversification of its approach both in the social and the sustainable context due to the changes in within society. These transformations lead to another concept, that of sustainable development that has become a priority at both national and international level, representing a viable variant in the evolution of humanity in the long run. Sustainable development is a current concept, and activity in almost all sectors of activity is being developed taking it into account and its implications for quality of life through education, health, economic development and beyond. In terms of sustainability, of sustainable development, we must consider meeting current needs through rational and efficient management of current resources by protecting the environment without endangering the future of the generations to come. In this article I will try to analyze in this article, by scientific observation and by reviewing the specialized literature, the segment of economic development in a sustainable context taking into account the economic-social indicators, the concept of economic growth and the objectives of sustainable development.
