GENERAL OVERVIEW


The World Federation of United Nations Associations (WFUNA) is a global non-profit organization working for a stronger and more effective United Nations.

Established in 1946, we represent and coordinate a membership of 100 United Nations Associations and their thousands of members.

We work to build a better world by strengthening and improving the United Nations through the engagement of people who share a global mindset and support international cooperation - global citizens.

Our organization has offices at the UN Headquarters in New York and Geneva, as well as in Seoul, Republic of Korea.


16+ FORUM OVERVIEW


From access to justice and the rule of law, to inclusion and participatory decision-making, violence reduction and the promotion of peace, Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 16 resonates across societies and the 2030 Agenda as an indivisible whole.

SDG 16+, which includes Sustainable Development Goal 16, its related 2030 Agenda targets for peaceful, just and inclusive societies and links to other UN agendas, such as Sustaining Peace, offers a catalytic opportunity to fully realize the 2030 Agenda, as an integrated and mutually-reinforcing whole, and deliver on the promise of societies which are free from fear and violence.

Launched in April 2016, the 16+ Forum is a multi
- stakeholder platform and partnership of 12 member states, the g7+ and with WFUNA as its Secretariat, designed to share and amplify best practices in SDG 16+ implementation at all levels and across a wide community of stakeholders - governments, civil society, the UN, regional and international organizations, academia, the private sector and others. The 16+ Forum's partner member states include Australia, Costa Rica, Czech Republic, Denmark, Georgia, Guatemala, Peru, Sierra Leone, Sweden, the Republic of Korea, Timor-Leste and Tunisia.


In short, the 16+ Forum provides a platform to demonstrate SDG 16+ in policy and practice, through multi-stakeholder partnerships and universally across countries and contexts.

Through gatherings, events and publications, it facilitates dialogue, learning and exchange among stakeholders.

Its primary global gathering, the 16+ Forum Annual Showcase, brings together 200+ policy makers, practitioners and thought leaders from over 40 countries focused on the policy and practice of advancing peaceful, just and inclusive societies (SDG 16+).

The first Showcase was held in Georgia in 2017, the second in Sierra Leone in 2018 and the third in Timor-Leste in 2019.

The fourth is taking place in 2023, in Geneva, Switzerland.
