Comprehending the complex interactions and linkages among Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) isfundamental to prioritizing and advancing progress. However, studies on the regional-scale SDGs and their interactions and linkages are limited. Here, an aggregated approach would allow for progress, trade-offs, synergies,modularity, and prioritization to reveal the relationship between different SDGs. And then, homogeneity andheterogeneity were considered from a comparative regional perspective, that means we used homogeneity andheterogeneity to analyze differences between regions. The results highlight that the synergistic effect among theEurasian SDGs was greater than the trade-offs. The trade-offs were concentrated in SDG12(Responsible Consumption and Production) and SDG13(Climate Action). As for linkages, between 2000 and 2010, the modularityof the Eurasian SDGs increased from 0.2095 to 0.2189, indicating a weakening of inter-module linkages and astrengthening of intra-module linkages. However, it tended to stabilize between 2010 and 2020. SDG3 (GoodHealth and Well-Being), SDG4 (Quality Education), and SDG1 (No Poverty) were the prioritized SDGs. Inaddition, there were spatial homogeneity and heterogeneity in the progress, interactions, and linkages of theSDGs. Our study highlights spatial homogeneity and heterogeneity to focus on regions with SDGs progressnetworks and may help to fix prioritization to achieve as many SDGs as possible by 2030.
