“…In this way, sustainable practice tends to be associated with sustainable development goals defined by challenges that humanity must face (Klarin, 2018). Therefore, the concept of sustainable development is based on the understanding of economic sustainability focused on maintaining an environment necessary for economic and social growth (Manioudis & Meramveliotakis, 2022). The economic, social, and environmental implications stand out in the face of the important urgency for a more critical and strategic look at the key dimensions of sustainable development in maintaining the market inherent in agricultural industrialization (Damke et al., 2022).…”

“…There are great challenges in the field of organizational sciences where yesterday's knowledge and organizational strategies cannot guarantee tomorrow's future (Antunes & Pinheiro, 2020). In recent decades, a steady trend of studies on sustainability is observed, aiming to enrich and improve the explanatory capacity of theories based on the achievement of sustainable development, incorporated into socioeconomic formation (Manioudis & Meramveliotakis, 2022).…”

This article aims to present the analysis of sustainability practices and the objectives of sustainable development and recovery in small businesses carried out through survey research. The work was based on the understanding of how the theme applies to the objectives of sustainability in small businesses, using the application of a questionnaire in 24 social enterprises of the agribusiness industry in the state of Rio Grande do Sul (RS), present at the largest Fair of Cooperativism in Latin America. The research was exploratory with an approach classified as descriptive, quantitative, and a data survey of 24 valid samples. As a result of the research, it was found that small businesses are focused on the recovery of sustainability, presenting results with significant advances in practical actions of more sustainable and innovative management and with greater cooperation among enterprises. The research makes explicit the possibility of expanding the sample, analyzing small businesses in other regions of the State of Rio Grande do Sul and of the country, with the survey of future research on the theme and case studies in small businesses, expanding the source of evidence to allow a more practical and critical view. Since this is an unprecedented study, the research sought to present to the scientific community the importance of what is currently being produced on the subject, by presenting the innovative and relevant result of the analysis of sustainable recovery in small businesses and sustainable practices.

“…The SDGs, while including a number of explicit and implicit solutions that address inequality, are often vaguely formulated, the targets are abstract, and the issue of inequality remains a central one, requiring fundamental reform of sustainable development thinking for 2030 and beyond. Moreover, the construction of poverty eradication and development within each individual state must include values and problem-solving frameworks based on the responsiveness of all bodies involved in achieving the SDGs [19,20].…”

Reducing Inequalities within and among EU Countries—Assessing the Achievement of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Targets (SDG 10)

et al. 2022

Reducing inequalities within and among countries is one of the main tenets of the sustainable development paradigm and has become an important pillar at the European Union level. By adopting the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, EU countries have committed themselves to meet targets against which progress in reducing inequalities can be measured. Through the present research, we aim to analyze and assess the extent to which EU countries will achieve the specific SDG 10 targets. Based on data published by Eurostat for the period 2010–2020, we forecast the trends of the indicators until the year 2030, using a model based on the AAA (Holt–Winters) version of exponential smoothing (ETS), to assess the degree to which the assumed targets will be reached. For more detailed information, we used dynamic indices to analyze the dynamics of the progress achieved. The results showed that it is difficult to clearly distinguish one or more countries as part of a group of high or low performers in terms of the efforts made and the effects achieved in reducing inequalities. However, we could mention Poland as a good and very good performer on most of the indicators analyzed. As opposite examples, we can mention Bulgaria and Greece, for which more attention and involvement are needed in adopting measures to correct the negative trend forecast.

“…The world is undergoing the largest wave of urbanization in human history, and the rural population is moving to cities at an unprecedented rate, causing a series of society and economic system problems including resource shortages, urban overloading, and environmental pollution which have had a huge impact on the sustainable development of cities [ 1 , 2 ]. In order to deal with the unsustainability of social development, some scholars call for the construction of a sustainable development analysis framework based on classical political economy, and then through multidisciplinary integration to put forward key countermeasures to achieve effective resource utilization, especially emphasizing the formation of utilization programs with efficiency as the core [ 3 , 4 , 5 ].…”

Industrial transformation and high-quality urban development have become the core issues of urban-rural coordination and the leap forward in development in the new era. The research perspective of ‘pattern-process-mechanism’ is needed to reveal the spatiotemporal correlation characteristics of industrial transformation and urban economic efficiency evolution, and to expand its systematic, comprehensive and regional characteristics. Based on the geographical cognitive of local effects and spatial non-stationarity, we used a quantile regression model and a geographically weighted regression model to analyze the dynamic mechanism of industrial transformation and urban economic efficiency to explain the path characteristics of urban development and industrial transformation of the Yangtze River economic belt. The conclusions are as follows: (1) From 2000 to 2015, the average economic efficiency in the Yangtze River economic belt increased from 0.05 to 0.332, and the pattern gradually changed from spatial homogeneity to spatial mosaic; (2) From 2000 to 2015, the range and intensity of industrial transformation in the Yangtze River economic belt showed an increasing trend, while the speed of industrial transformation showed a downward trend, and the high-value unit of the three showed the characteristics of gradual homogenization; (3) From the perspective of the impact of industrial transformation on urban economic efficiency, the impact of the range and speed of industrial transformation on urban economic efficiency was gradually weakened, while the impact of the intensity of industrial transformation on urban economic efficiency was gradually strengthened, and the patterns of the three show the characteristics of a spatially inverted U-shaped distribution with high values in the middle reaches and low values in the upstream and downstream areas.
