Resumen

The aim of this study is to conduct a comprehensive review of the literature on the conceptualization of sustainable personal development (SPD) and its relevance to the future of the world. A systematic literature search was conducted in five stages, involving the screening of 367 studies. The study employed bibliometric and in-depth content analyses. This offers a novel and replicable approach to systematization and analysis. The SPD, a relevant term used in the academic literature, is conceptualized, and a significant contribution is made to the field of knowledge and sustainability. This integral concept is associated with social development on a global scale, given that sustainability initiatives originate with each individual. Conversely, the associated elements facilitate the identification of significant relationships that could inform future research initiatives in academia, business, and the wider world.
