The main objective of this reaserch is to conduct a cross-country study to evaluate socio-economic system of Organization for Economic and Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries from the perspective of 3 pillars of sustainable development: economy, society, and environment. To do so, this study is concentrated on three areas: educational system and innovation, health system and well-being, and energy and environment. For the educational system 30 OECD countries and for the health system 31 OECD countries, and for energy sector 132 countries are assessed, which for all three of them the measures of evaluation are based on the three pillars of sustainable development. The approaches to evaluate the countries are Data Enevelopment Analysis (DEA) and Data mining, in the way that in the first phase of study (educational system) BCC model, in the second phase of study (health system) additive model with Principle Component Analysis (PCA) and decision tree analysis, and in the third phase of study (energy and environment) MinSum DEA model and K-Means clustering are used. The results from the first phase shows that the countries: USA, Japan, and Germany which has the highest number of environmental patents have become efficient. Findings from the health system study show that USA has the lowest efficiency, however, Iceland has been recognized as an efficient country which is also suitable as a benchmark for the inefficient ones and by decision tree analysis it is found that air pollution factor has a high effect on the efficiency status of a country in health area. The finding from the energy efficiency show that developed countries with high income and developing countries with low income according to the energy eficiency can be in the same cluster.
