Abstract: Abstract The research aims to present and analyze research related to the seventeen sustainable development goals (SDGs) according to the United Nations (UN) 2030 Plan, which was issued in 2015, by studying the dimensions and scope of each study during the period 2020–2023 in detail. And evaluate its importance and contribution to the SDGs. This is with the aim of reaching the research gaps that were not covered by these studies to be guided by the results of this study in the expected areas of research in this field. The importance of this research stems from providing new research points to fill these research gaps in the future and address shortcomings in the field of implementing SDGs in all countries of the world in general and developing countries in particular. The researchers reached a set of theoretical implications, the most important of which is that most studies focused on the economic aspect without addressing the role of companies in contributing to the implementation of SDG initiatives and thus their impact on national economies. There are a few obstacles facing developing countries in implementing the SDGs, which makes them lag developed countries in this field.
