This year the Global Media Fest will explore United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #16, which states that  “conflict, insecurity, weak institutions and limited access to justice remain a great threat to sustainable development.” United Nations SDG #16 focuses on several related targets, including the promotion of societies that are peaceful, fair, and inclusive. Targets include promoting human rights such as legal identity for all and eliminating barriers to sustainability such as corruption and exploitation.
