From: A network approach to rank countries chasing sustainable development
The spectra of countries’ relative performances, obtained as \(P_{cg} - (k_c/17)\). Countries are first ranked and then clustered according to their average performance (i.e., the SDG Index or, equivalently, their degree). Based on the ranking positions, we define six classes of performance: light blue (countries in positions \(1 - 28\)), green (\(29 - 56\)), yellow (\(57 - 84\)), magenta (\(85 - 112\)), pink (\(113 - 140\)) and violet (\(141 - 166\)). The classes’ average spectra of relative performances are shown in thicker lines. The top and bottom relative performers in each Goal are pointed out, and their performance value is color-coded as their corresponding class. The figure has been generated using Tableau 2020.3, [https://www.tableau.com/].
