SDG 16: Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions –

SOCIO-ECONOMIC OUTLOOK

SDG 16 features key propositions of governance concerning the blueprint

and execution of all 17 SDGs. So far, despite the apparent global appeal
for moralities like 'peace' and 'justice,' arbitration over SDG 16 were
opposed heavily, publicizing a multiplex geopolitical prospect of contending
global priorities. Developing nations have uplifted the anxiety and worry
that the SDGs might be confiscated by the UN's plan for safety and peace,
as precedence is given to security, whereas brush aside the threads
between peace, quietude, and justice.

The term 'governance' has attained resistance across the years and
decades, showing the transition in the core and persona of power under
universalization. In this state of affairs, the term 'governance' is determined
predominantly as ' the evolution and maintenance of informal and formal
protocols that guided the common dominion, the realm where both socio-
economic sectors have to come together to undertake a commitment and
judgment for the betterment.' Professionals define natural resources as 'the
organizations, operations, and norms that governed how management &
authority practices over natural deposits, how the judgment and settlement
regarding the resources taken and how the regulation of natural deposits
will effect community including men, women, youth, locals, and natives.'
The universalization of socio-economic agreement and development of
agriculture and industries associated with extraction artificial intelligence
and automation have encouraged the evolution of international accord and
instruments based on markets which connect in multiplex methods with the
states, natives, and conventional sources of both official and unofficial
authority.

SDG 16 envelopes all kinds of brutality and exploitation at a massive scale.

The primary concern is manual violence, or we can say physical violence,
but emotional and intellectual power is too introduced and mentioned. The
facts conveying the effects of brutality and violence on resources,
specifically forests and people relied on forests, under the category where
cruelty over civilians impacts land and disputes for resources right away
and secondarily on natives and the locals from governmental revolt. These
facts primarily focus on how these disputes may or may not affect forests
and the locals, thereby, preferably on how the disagreement or argument is
overpowered and henceforth affecting outcomes or results. These facts are
possibly similar to the supreme discussion that stillness is the outcome of
democratic engagement and law. When observed, the actuality is not as
simple as it seems- practices involving brutality and violence are now
becoming instruments of independence, encouraging self-government by
authorizing disparage groups. In other words, autonomy may become an
instrument of domination, undercutting objection by constituting as brutal
those people and activities that drift from organized channels and
mediums. The rule of law is one of the prime concerns of SDG 16, constant
with the broad current (trend) in global governance to encourage legitimacy
and legal administration as a towpath to sustainability. This tendency is
observed mainly in the forest sector- achieved important distinction with the
increasing logging measures which are not permitted. The reciprocity of
lucidity and clarity can notice 'international commons' innate in global
climate governance. Global leaders' assertion of expansion allows global
modulation of exercises that had regional and public sources earlier. The
people residing in the towns and villages drew into a transitory
conglomeration of global governance. They are concerned with recent
recognitions like a business person and responsible and accountable
environment nationals designated to take care of the international
commons. The conceptualization of 'justice' segmented in SDG 16 raises
questions like for whom and for what grows are equity, fairness, and
justice. The targets under SDG 16 seem to relate justice with encouraging
and advancing the rule of law and the formation of legitimacy, furthermore
characterizing citation to worldwide human rights laws. This substantially
eludes the argument of how nations' definition of equity and justice certainly
provide special honor and perception of justice and equity as well over the
rests.
Interpreting SDG 16 from a political outlook needs notice of how
federations and independent states utilize their potential to understand and
formulate the SDGs. These are impacted directly both by a majority of
administration or governmental actions and multiple local multiplexity.
Governments from the central jurisdiction beyond the SDGs are
accountable for details and some standards, clarifying the concept of the
significance of languages of SDGs states organizations. Though
comprehending governance as manifold coordinating, well-connected, and
challenges make it impractical to brush aside how reinforcing the state's
strengthening power may compromise other government establishments
like the conventional or traditional domination and the natives.

SDG 16 displays global accordance on the significance of participative

Proceedings and law-making for locals. In the frame of reference of forests,
this acknowledges that forest use, management, and administrative
conduct can fail commons, and solutions for long-term perspective to
environmental and communal issues, while Worldwide in extent, may result
in a lack of justice equity to the locals. Moreover, research conducted
recently shows that the priority of SDG 16 is majorly state-oriented and
indexes to attain reasonable administrative risks stressing the absence of
justice. While the accomplishment of a truthful comprehensive and
sustainable development, with equality for all and at all parameters, is a
palpable objective, it must not complicate the inevitable trade-offs innate in
administration and obviously in terms of justice. It is pivotal to maintain a
well educated and knowledgeable standpoint in applying SDG 16 that
recognized these trade-offs and clear off room for thriving arguments
among the states. Providing necessary space for the opinions, for the
debates is critical for the sake of both social and solitary well-being, justice,
equity, and peace.
