Rising to the Challenge: Building Peaceful, Just, Equal and Inclusive Societies in a Divided World

Addressing vulnerability and promoting security
Jul 26, 2023 | Pathfinders for Peaceful, Just and Inclusive Societies

The vast majority of global violent deaths do not take place in conflict zones but are intentional homicides, mostly occurring in urban contexts. According to the Institute of Economics and Peace, global peacefulness in 2022 deteriorated for the eleventh time in 14 years, albeit by a small margin. At the heart of the 2030 Agenda is a vision of a world free from fear and violence, anchored in commitments to build more peaceful, just, equitable, and inclusive societies, a vision captured in the SDG16 framework. This report by David Andersson, commissioned by the Pathfinders for Peaceful, Just and Inclusive Societies, focuses on SDG16 and encompasses a broader approach to SDG16. Its premise is that multiple targets across the SDG spectrum can contribute to peace, justice, equality, and inclusion while in turn strengthening the systems, and improving the environment needed, for improved outcomes in other areas.
