Mapping the sustainability of geographical indication products: a systematic literature review
摘要
This review aims to analyze and visualise the significant contribution of geographical indications (GIs) tagged products to sustainability. The research articles included in this study were sourced from the Scopus and the Web of Science databases, and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) framework was applied to the systematic review of the quality articles. The study conducts a comprehensive scientific Bibliometric and TCCM (Theory, Context, Characteristics, and Methodology) analysis over time. The main contribution of these studies is providing opportunities for the development of local economies, cultural heritage preservation, and promoting sustainable agricultural practices through biodiversity conservation, contributing to economic, social, and environmental sustainability. A Conceptual framework was developed that shows how GI registration links to sustainability and contributes to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Furthermore, the Sustainability of Geographical indications is an emerging field; there is a need for more research in this area. Some insightful future research directions proposed to advance this research domain, especially in contributing to the UN SDG goals.
