Peace and Justice Strong Institutions

Promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, provide access to justice for all and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels.

Goal 16

Our world is becoming more and more polarised. While some regions experience consistent levels of peace, security, and prosperity, others are mired in what seems like never-ending cycles of conflict and violence. This is not inescapable and needs to be addressed. SDG 16 calls for peaceful, inclusive societies built on the rule of law, respect for human rights, and care for the most vulnerable members of society. Additionally, it envisions institutions that are open, efficient, and accountable, support non-discriminatory laws and policies, fight corruption, bribery, and organized crime, and stop violence, terrorism, and crime.
