SDG 16: Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions
Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 16, part of the United Nations' 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, focuses on promoting peaceful, inclusive societies, providing access to justice for all, and building effective, accountable, and inclusive institutions at all levels. It recognizes that sustainable development cannot be achieved without addressing violence, corruption, and injustice.
Why SDG 16 Matters
- Impact on Development: Violence and corruption impede economic and social progress. Countries with weak institutions often experience slow or negative development.
- Social Stability: Peaceful societies foster trust, reduce inequalities, and encourage active civic engagement.
- Protection of Rights: Access to justice and strong institutions uphold human rights and protect vulnerable populations.
