Tableau can use large data sets to analyse, visualize and share knowledge, such as: whole Egypt, HEIs, governorate, university, college, program, course, faculty members, and students to determine the demography and performance. It provides a variety of graphs, chart forms and dashboards that can assist to have a better tool in HEIs for sustainability. An analysis based on a literature review of visualization tools such as Tableau and sustainable development goals. This paper suggests that most 17 SDGs and ESDGs can be analysed, visualized and shared knowledge using Tableau. Tableau tool can be used to study the extent to which higher education institutions can be used to contribute to the achievement of sustainable development both internal and external EHEIs geographical boundaries. This paper emphasizes the application of a relevant practical underpinning to support Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Keywords— Big Data, Visualization Tools, Tableau; HEIs, SDGs. I. INTRODUCTION Headings Tableau is one of the tools of knowledge management systems for the third generation of the Internet with live connection. In higher education, Tableau is unlocking the power of data to improve learning, fundraising, planning, and research. Hundreds of leading institutions use Tableau to analyze student enrolment, achievement, and demographics. Educational institutions are developing better alumni relations and streamlining educational reporting. In the classroom and in the lab, Tableau enriches the learning experience with analytics anyone can use and understand [1]. The role of HEIs in achieving sustainable development (SD) was highlighted for the first time in the 1972 Stockholm Declaration on the Human Environment [2]. Since then, HEIs and their stakeholders have increasingly engaged in a number of global initiatives and expressed their commitment to SD in a variety of national and international declarations and charters [3]. Recent examples include the United Nations Higher Education Sustainability Initiative (UN HESI) and the UN Higher Education and Research for Sustainable Development (HESD) platform. Both initiatives foster the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as part of a globally agreed policy agenda for SD, in higher education [4] and [5]. Education for sustainable development (ESD) is expected both to make people more aware and better qualified to take part in shaping future developments responsibly, and to raise their awareness of the problems
