Original abstract
Sustainable development has evolved from a peripheral policy aspiration into a central organising principle that now shapes research, practice and governance across nearly every academic discipline. This paper presents a global, cross-disciplinary investigation into how sustainable development and innovation practices are conceived, adopted and operationalised across nine fields, namely engineering, agriculture, business and management, health sciences, education, social sciences, computer science, urban planning and energy. Drawing on a systematic review of literature published between 2015 and 2025, complemented by a structured synthesis of survey data, institutional reports and international databases, the study maps patterns of convergence and divergence in the way disciplines translate the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into concrete innovation. A mixed-methods design combining quantitative indicator analysis with qualitative thematic synthesis was employed to ensure both breadth and interpretive depth. The findings reveal that, although the vocabulary of sustainability is now widely shared, the depth of integration differs markedly between technical and social disciplines, with energy and engineering displaying the highest adoption of measurable sustainable practices and the social sciences and education emphasising systemic, behavioural and equity-oriented innovation. Regional analysis demonstrates a persistent but narrowing gap between high-income and low- and middle-income economies, driven in large part by international collaboration, digital technologies and frugal innovation. The study concludes that the most durable advances arise where disciplines deliberately cross boundaries, combining technological capability with institutional, behavioural and ethical insight. A cross-disciplinary framework is proposed to guide future integration, and priorities for further research are identified.
