“…The goals are directed at a number of basic indicators for global well-being, such as education, health, and equality. The 17 SDGs are specified by 169 individual targets, with the common understanding being that these global goals need to be treated as being interconnected and interdependent rather than being handled separately or even in silos (Pedersen et al, 2023).…”

The Algerian government has integrated the seventeen sustainable development goals (SDGs) into its development strategy beyond 2030, focusing on social policies like healthcare and education while investing in environmental enhancements and clean energy initiatives. This study evaluates the impact of government policies on achieving the SDGs in Algeria from 2000 to 2022. Utilizing the ARDL model, the research demonstrates that government support has a positive long-term effect on sustainable development indicators, with a coefficient of 1.14. Importantly, the model analysis did not identify any statistical anomalies. This assessment highlights the significant role of government support in advancing SDGs in Algeria and underscores the importance of continued policy commitment to drive progress in key areas such as healthcare, education, environmental sustainability, and clean energy.

“…In this light, issues such as 'poverty and income inequality', 'cybersecurity and privacy', 'food security and agriculture', 'education disparity' and, as recently highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic, 'global health inequality' have been framed as wicked problems. More recently, the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have also been described as wicked problems, largely due to the interconnected nature of these goals and complex trade-offs and synergies occurring between them [3,4]. Climate change is perhaps the most salient wicked issue, often deemed as a 'super' wicked problem due to its particularly complex and multifaceted characteristics that have far-reaching consequences for societies and ecosystems across the globe [5,6].…”

Empowering Tomorrow’s Problem Solvers: Nexus Thinking and CLEWs Modelling as a Pedagogical Approach to Wicked Problems

et al. 2023

The increasing prevalence of wicked problems, such as climate change, requires a transformation in education that equips students with the skills, competencies and knowledge to address these complex challenges. Wicked problems are characterised by their incomplete, contradictory, and ever-changing requirements, rendering them difficult to resolve due to intricate interdependencies. Nexus thinking offers a valuable approach to these problems, as it emphasises the interconnectedness of various systems, fostering a more comprehensive understanding of the challenges at hand. In this paper, we propose the use of Climate, Land, Energy, and Water (CLEWs) modelling as an innovative pedagogical strategy tool to cultivate nexus thinking among students. Building upon the pioneering CLEWs pedagogical work of Shivakumar et al., in their ‘Introduction to CLEWs’ Open Learn course, we demonstrate how this approach can be utilised in a Higher Education (HE) setting in the form of a Masters’ module for geography students.
