Goal 16:

Peace, justice and strong institutions

Promote just, peaceful and inclusive societies

Icon of the Sustainable Development Goal 16 of the 2030 Agenda

The SDG 16 addresses institutional quality and topics that are essential to the sustainability of the entire social system, such as peace and safeguarding fundamental rights. A key milestone is to reduce the rates of crime and violent acts of any kind, and completely eradicate those that affect children. This will be achieved by stepping up the fight against crime, especially terrorism and organised crime that deals with illegal weapons, money laundering and human trafficking.

The other goals outline a model that all public institutions should follow: they must be effective, responsible and transparent, fully committed to the fight against corruption, and supportive of an inclusive, participatory and representative democracy. In addition, these institutions must protect the fundamental freedoms and safeguard universal access to justice under equal conditions.
