Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic, the biggest pandemic after the Spanish flu pandemic, has become a new proposition to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It affects every aspect of human life, such as health, education, economy, so that, SDG 1 (No Poverty), SDG 2 (Zero Hunger), SDG3 (Health and Welfare), SDG4 (Quality Education), SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities) may come with grief. We majorly focused on literature review of discussing actions that are not related or related to the goals of SDGs as a whole or not as a whole completed in VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, ambiguity) circumstance of post COVID-19 pandemic. Thus, we discovered the best derivation for optimal post COVID-19 recovery. We imagining in five scenarios as regards actions to its possible consequence for post COVID-19 recovery. We conclude that SDGs push scenario is the superlative action scenario to face VUCA circumstance of post-pandemic. We hope that this review will provide an initiative for stakeholders and related sectors to continue pointing the usage of the SDGs, so as, the progress that has been made to achieve the SDGs for sustainable living can be realized on time towards optimal post COVID-19 recovery. © 2024 American Institute of Physics Inc..
