SDG 16 is the goal for peace, justice, and strong institutions: promoting peaceful and inclusive societies, access to justice, and accountable institutions. This page tracks 222 projects, including transparency and governance technology, legal access initiatives, and organizations working on institutional accountability.
Strong institutions underpin progress on nearly every other goal, so projects listed here frequently intersect with SDG 10 (reduced inequalities) and SDG 17 (partnerships), since durable change usually requires both fair governance and coordinated collaboration.
What counts as an SDG 16 project? Initiatives that improve transparency, expand access to justice, or strengthen accountable governance and institutions.
