Description
Summary:This article is a systematic literature review (SLR) analysing the literature concerning SDG localisation strategies in Southeast Asia adhering to the ROSES framework as its primary guiding principle. This study screened five hundred quantitative method articles from the SCOPUS and WoS databases from 2016 to 2022. Through rigorous inclusion criteria, ten quantitative journal articles were eligible for assessment. Thematic analysis of the selected articles revealed four predominant themes within the SDGs’ localisation initiatives. These encompass policy measures, green initiatives, stakeholder partnerships, and mechanisms for public participation, showcasing how countries in the region are working to embed the SDGs into their specific local contexts. Given the scarcity of literature concerning SDG localisation in Southeast Asian countries, these findings offer substantial practical and knowledge-based contributions. Qualitative and mixed-method studies and systematic reviews on these two methods are recommended to contribute significantly to idealising and refining the SDGs’ localisation process.
