<![CDATA[Rapid changes of the 21st century require education to develop essential skills, sustainability literacy, and complex problem-solving abilities. However, many studies indicate that students’ competencies remain low, particularly in environmental awareness, critical thinking, and problem-solving. This condition highlights the need for innovation in science learning that is more relevant to global challenges. Therefore, integrating STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) with Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) has become an important approach to improving the quality of learning. This study aims to map research trends and opportunities related to ESD-STEM integration through bibliometric analysis. Data were collected from Scopus-indexed articles published between 2015 and 2025 and analyzed using VOSviewer, including publication performance, co-authorship, keyword occurrence, and thematic mapping analyses. The results show a significant increase in publications, particularly since 2020, focusing on STEM, sustainability, and pedagogical innovation. The dominant subject areas include social sciences, computer science, and engineering, with major contributions from the United States, Indonesia, and Malaysia. These findings confirm that ESD-STEM integration promotes interdisciplinary, contextual, and sustainability-oriented learning, while opening opportunities for future research.]]>
