Jovanović Gavrilović, Velibor
Sustainable development is one of the key topics in contempo rary discussions on development. Over time, the concept has evolved from a vague vision of development centered on environmental issues to a compre hensive development paradigm that includes economic, social and environ mental aspects. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the UN, which are the focus of this paper, reflect that broader, modern approach to sustain able development. The paper aims to measure the progress of the countries of the EU and the Western Balkans in terms of achieving SDGs. For this pur pose, the composite SDG Index, developed by the Bertelsmann Stiftung and the Sustainable Development Solutions Network, was used. This index is de composed into three pillars - economic, social and environmental, in order to monitor and analyze the achieved results more easily. Conducted research re veals the weak points in the implementation of SDGs and indicates the prior ity directions of action.
