Present study is an endeavor in this direction and attempts to evaluate the impact of urbanization, agriculture, and water resource availability on the achievement of sustainable development of BRICS nations. The study employs Panel data analysis using Fixed Effects Model (FEM) and Random Effects Model (REM) along with the application of Hausman Test to determine the appropriate model selection. The results reveal that urbanization significantly enhances SDG progress, agriculture shows an insignificant effect, and water resource availability negatively impacts sustainability, indicating the urgent need for strategic urban planning, agricultural reforms, and efficient water management. The study also highlights that country-specific factors play a critical part in shaping sustainability outcomes, reinforcing the necessity for BRICS policymakers to adopt geographically tailored approaches that align economic growth with environmental sustainability. 2026, IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
