SDG 16 is both an objective and a catalyst for all the SDGs. Without peace, justice, and inclusion, achieving goals such as ending poverty, ensuring education, or promoting economic growth is difficult or impossible to sustain. Supporting and promoting SDG 16 brings the promise of many desirable consequences. Peaceful and just societies, based on the rule of law, are likely to have effective, accountable, and inclusive institutions, that protect human rights and drive the type of development that is truly sustainable.
It is our intention to keep the Chapters as up to date as possible. Please help us to do so by providing feedback or new information which to include in them. Contact us at [email protected]
