• TITLE: Reframing the Sustainability: A Conceptual Framework for Integrating Energy, Economic, Environmental, and Social Relationships in a Multilevel Policy Design

  ABSTRACT: This paper introduces an integrated Conceptual Framework designed to examine the relationships between Energy, Economy, Environment, and Society (E-E-E-S) through the lens of ecological sustainability. The framework synthesizes Decoupling Analysis, Environmental Kuznets Curve theory, Decomposition Techniques, and Econometric Tools into a modular system that enables multidimensional analysis of sustainability transitions. It allows for spatial and sectoral flexibility while remaining grounded in ecological indicators and socio-economic dynamics. The proposed model supports the development of informed policy tools and regionally adapted strategies in line with key Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDGs 7, 8, 11, and 13. This approach also establishes a foundation for future empirical investigations and the development of decision-support systems to foster ecological resilience.
