SDG 16+ Report
Enabling the implementation of the 2030 Agenda through SDG16+: Anchoring peace, justice and inclusion
This report provides an overview of country level actions and progress on SDG 16+ across different regions and development contexts and highlights key trends, findings and recommendations for SDG 16+ implementation globally. It is grounded in the key messages coming out of six regional multistakeholder consultations, that have taken place over the last 12 months, on experiences, challenges and opportunities for action on SDG 16+ in support of peaceful, just and inclusive societies. The report draws from evidence of recent research and analysis across SDG 16+ targets and is enriched by case studies from 25 countries across different regions and development contexts.

What are the Objectives of the SDG 16+ Report?
The SDG 16+ report seeks to show that measuring SDG 16 is possible and progress on SDG 16 enables progress on other goals.
The priority target audience for the report is member states and policy-makers. However, the report will be accessibly written to ensure that it is also relevant for other practitioners such as non-governmental actors. Programmatic guidance for UN staff will not be the focus of the report but may be flagged and further developed after the report has been launched.
What does The Report cover?
The report covers progress on SDG 16 from different perspectives, including:
-
In the areas of peace, justice, inclusion;
-
On adapting, implementing, monitoring & reporting on SDG 16;
-
Action at global, regional and national level;
-
Interlinkages of SDG 16 with other SDGs.
How was the SDG 16+ Report developed?
The drafting process was led by an Editors’ Group consisting of the Global Alliance’s co-facilitators (UNESCO, UNDP, OHCHR, UNODC, UNHCR, UN Women).
The SDG 16+ report draws from:
-
A review of existing analyses by a range of stakeholders on issues covered by SDG 16 (meta analysis)
-
Country Case Studies drafted by national partners in 20+ countries, facilitated by UN Country Teams where they exist.
-
The Technical Consultations and other relevant events that the Global Alliance and the other SDG16+ Coalition partners organised
