Strategic Perspectives on Achieving Sustainable Development Goal 16: Enhancing Access to Justice and Promoting a Peaceful Society in Thailand
Main Article Content
Abstract
The United Nations has declared the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), comprising 17 goals aimed at fostering global collaboration for a just world. With a timeline set from 2015 to 2030, Thailand, among other nations, is yet to meet various criteria, especially within Goal 16. To achieve these goals, a clear and ethical strategy is imperative. This academic article seeks to present a strategy for achieving Sustainable Development Goal 16, encompassing comprehensive access to the criminal justice process, access to justice without financial barriers, cultivating social peace through inclusive justice and institutional management of public sector expenditures, Prioritizing and sequencing sub-goals for implementation, forming a shared vision, and establishing a collaborative legal study task force to amend laws hindering progress are recommended, ensuring that legal frameworks align with the driving forces behind these developmental efforts.
