2 Interdependencies and Interconnectedness of SDGs Notes: The numbers on the links indicate the percentage of targets linking the two goals (number of links between two goals divided by the sum of targets under the two goals). SDG17 on means of implementation (which links to all other goals) was excluded from the analysis. The Kamada-Kawai projection minimizes the energy of the network (imagine a network of physical springs) and hence places the most central nodes in the middle.
