In fact, from achieving clean water and sanitation for all to securing real gender equality, these goals cannot be met without the sustained efforts of academics worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>As concerted\u00a0global efforts towards these goals gain momentum,\u00a0stakeholders across the research community need to find, assess and evaluate articles that directly align with the SDGs in order to understand how research outputs contribute to progress. At Clarivate, sustainability <a href=\"https:\/\/clarivate.com\/sustainability-at-clarivate\/\">is woven through every part of our business strategy<\/a>. We help companies innovate for a better future worldwide while operating to the highest social, environmental and ethics standards, and we\u2019re deeply invested in the UN Sustainable Development Goals. This is why today we\u2019re announcing the introduction of a new way to identify research articles associated with the SDGs in <a href=\"https:\/\/incites.clarivate.com\/\">InCites Benchmarking &amp; Analytics\u2122.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>SDGs in InCites are based on <a href=\"https:\/\/clarivate.com\/blog\/introducing-citation-topics\/\">Citation Topics<\/a>, which leverage the unique citation links available in the <a href=\"https:\/\/clarivate.com\/webofsciencegroup\/solutions\/web-of-science\/\">Web of Science<\/a>\u2122. \u00a0Each SDG is made of a set of Micro Citation Topics carefully identified by analysts at the company\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/clarivate.com\/webofsciencegroup\/solutions\/isi-institute-for-scientific-information\/\">Institute of Scientific Information<\/a>\u2122 (ISI) based on a combination of bibliometric analysis and manual curation. Available as a new schema in the Research Areas module in InCites, the SDGs will be reviewed regularly based on customer feedback, in addition to the yearly re-clustering of Citation Topics.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-172562 size-full aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/clarivate.com\/academia-government\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/blog1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"902\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/clarivate.com\/academia-government\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/blog1.png 902w, https:\/\/clarivate.com\/academia-government\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/blog1-300x180.png 300w, https:\/\/clarivate.com\/academia-government\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/blog1-768x460.png 768w, https:\/\/clarivate.com\/academia-government\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/blog1-67x40.png 67w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 902px) 100vw, 902px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>SDGs can be easily viewed and exported in tables and all visualizations within InCites, and a new Tree Map visualization specifically displays the SDG colours and icons.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-172563 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/clarivate.com\/academia-government\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Picture2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"902\" height=\"438\" srcset=\"https:\/\/clarivate.com\/academia-government\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Picture2.jpg 902w, https:\/\/clarivate.com\/academia-government\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Picture2-300x146.jpg 300w, https:\/\/clarivate.com\/academia-government\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Picture2-768x373.jpg 768w, https:\/\/clarivate.com\/academia-government\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Picture2-82x40.jpg 82w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 902px) 100vw, 902px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Customers can now follow and evaluate the ongoing \u201cconversation\u201d of UN SDGs research in the literature.
