24 UNODC and the SDGs
25 Crime and Sustainable Development qpktxcr2c&list=plp1rric89efcgpqr WwTrsjcjEWIue2sxw
26 Rule of Law and Sustainable Development Rule of Law crucial to sustainable development Existence of legal frameworks, enforced in a predictable and transparent manner The link between weak rule of law at the national and international levels, and illicit trade As a main source of income for organized criminal groups, illicit flows are intimately linked with a range of threats to the development agenda, including drug cartel violence; corruption; money laundering; etc.
27 Security and Sustainable Development Violence imposes enormous costs on States, communities and individuals The prevention and reduction of all forms of violence and abuse should be at the heart of human security Violence can lead people to avoid participating in governance & development The space that they vacate may be filled by vested criminal interests occupying power positions => arrested development
28
29 Target 16.1: Significantly reduce all forms of violence and related death rates everywhere. Target 16.2: End abuse, exploitation, trafficking and all forms of violence against and torture of children. Target 16.3: Promote the rule of law at the national and international levels and ensure equal access to justice for all. Target 16.4: By 2030, significantly reduce illicit financial and arms flows, strengthen the recovery and return of stolen assets and combat all forms of organized crime. Target 16.5: Substantially reduce corruption and bribery in all their forms. Target 16.6: Develop effective, accountable and transparent institutions at all levels. Target 16.7: Ensure responsive, inclusive, participatory and representative decision-making at all levels.
30 What else can UNODC do to support the SDGs? 1. Data: access to law enforcement, criminal justice institutions 2. Crime: the crime agenda not explicit 3. Criminal Justice Practitioners: bring them into the process
