Resumen
Quality education is understood as one of the most powerful and proven drivers for
ensuring sustainable development, which can be applied in various educational contexts, formal
and non-formal, and which can generate multiple benefits for the general public. Given its relevance,
this article presents a bibliometric approach of the scientific production generated around Sustainable
Development Goal (SPG) 4 that seeks to “Ensure inclusive and quality education for all and promote
lifelong learning” as a priority objective of 2030 Agenda. To develop this research, a literature search was
conducted in theWeb of Science and Scopus databases. The final sample was 240 publications. The data
were analyzed around ten variables: year of publication, type of document, area of indexation,
periodical publications, most productive authors, institutions, countries, languages, most cited
articles, and key words. The findings of this study indicate that quality education, within the
Sustainable Development Goals, is gaining relevance, with 2019 being the year with the highest
scientific production. This is a growing theme that is transmitted mainly through articles and papers
in English, and there are no institutions, research groups or authors with a broad scientific background
and production. The conclusion is that this bibliometric approach is important and necessary to
know the reality of scientific production on this subject and to be able to make proposals and lines of
research for its development.
