Situated in northern Europe, Iceland is a small country that exemplifies sustainable development and harmonious coexistence with the environment, emphasising qualitative progress. In response to the sluggishness caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Iceland has actively pursued a practical strategy to realise its sustainable development goals, aiming to revitalise industry and the economy. This study takes a comprehensive look at Iceland's sustainable development indicators and examines the evolution of its goal achievement system. The study analyses four indicators for improving the quality of education, eight indicators for promoting green growth, thirteen codes of conduct for overcoming the climate crisis and thirteen indicators for promoting environmentally friendly oceans, taking into account Iceland's maritime identity. Using the insights gained from this analysis, the study presents actionable strategies that reflect regional characteristics and offers strategic recommendations for sustainable development indicators that can serve as a reference for other nations in the future.
