In the context of the 2022 United Nations High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development, this fourth edition of the Voices of SDG16+ : Stories for Global Action video campaign will feature local civil society voices from around the world to showcase how their work on SDG16+ is contributing to building back better from the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) while advancing the full implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development

In addition to showcasing stellar contributions from civil society, this virtual side-event during HLPF 2022 will also provide an opportunity to engage with the community of local voices of SDG16+. The Voices of SDG16+, started in 2019, provides a unique and dynamic opportunity to call for accelerated action and increased awareness on the work of local civil society partners in this domain. Featured videos will exemplify how the global goal towards more peaceful, just and inclusive societies is being implemented and is invaluable in positively impacting people’s lives.

This event is hosted by the Civil Society Platform for Peacebuilding and Statebuilding [CSPPS] / Cordaid, in collaboration with Namati, Peace Direct, Article 19, TAP Network and World Vision
