Institutions and policies for poverty reduction (1.b.).  Corruption in public services and goods disproportionally affects the poor, since they are the ones that depend the most on these. Combating corruption in this sector means that public resources can have a direct impact in offering better public services and goods, as money is not diverted to the financial accounts of corrupt officials and people can access these services and goods without the need of paying a bribe. Illicit financial flows, stolen assets, organized crime (16.4). If Mexico is able to seize, froze and confiscate stolen assets related to corruption and organized crime, the country could reinvest these funds to give them a social use, which could include initiatives to reduce poverty (thus, a relation exists with the target above). Rule of law and access to justice (16.3). To ensure that 16.4 is achieved, Mexico will have to ensure the rule of law and integrity in the judicial system, which have traditionally failed to provide sanctions for officials engage in corruption (often, due to the same corruption present in the system).

A strong fight against corruption will help a great deal in rendering our institutions effective, accountable and transparent. We need stronger institutions than strong individuals who enrich themselves as a result of an opaque system of management. Once this is done, the institutions will be able to deliver in the service to citizens.
A few years ago, we were named as the most corrupted nation in the world twice, in two years (successively). The level of bribery and corruption is so high that many citizens believe that we have been bribing not to feature top in the classification again. This situation has become normalised in such a way that many would not believe you if you indicated obtained a basic service from a government office free of charge. Access to basic services is now open only to people who can afford it and this has resulted to a great loss of trust in the system. To turn things around we need to strongly fight all forms of bribery and corruption.
The situations described above has led to enormous frustrations and many citizens have become very prone to conflict, often seeking to administer justice themselves since the system cannot help them out. We need to bring back that trust in the system and lead Cameroonians to believe that their voices do count and they can rely on the system in place to resolve conflicts or issues. It is necessary for the development of a strong culture of peace and non-violence.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Corruption and bribery
2. Gender Equality
3. Rule of law and access to justice
Corruption and Bribery is deep rooted in procurement and bidding of both National and County governments. This can be addressed by putting in place accountable and transparent institutions with a aim of strengthening governance and leadership. Other measures that can be used to address this includes involving public participation in procurement and tendering processes, adopting E-procurement and enhancing accountable oversight control methods.
For Gender equality, women and girls in Kenya lag behind in health and education sector, economy culture and work place.
This gap can be solved by increasing women representation in leadership in both elective and appointive positions, support women in health care, give them incentives and soft loans to invest in agribusiness and become self reliant.
Rule of law and access to justice
The Constitution of Kenya requires the government to facilitate access to justice for all citizens, as it remains a critical pillar for poverty reduction and sustainable development. The delivery of justice should be impartial and non discriminatory, judicial processes should be fair, transparent, effective and accountable service that promotes access to justice for all, this will eradicate a culture of judiciary. Judicial courts should be left to carry out their work independently, no arm of government should be allowed to interfere with the judiciary

16.5 Corruption and bribery.
Most Nigerians are living in poverty and we all know that a hungry man is an angry man. Food is the most basic need of man and tackling poverty should be a major concern. Policies that will create jobs, guarantee food security, boost entrepreneurship and other money-making ventures should be put in place. The judiciary should be made independent for real. That is the only way justice will be guaranteed. Anti-corruption agencies should be empowered and also made independent instead of being used for witch-hunting.

I chose the following three targets:
1.  Quality Education
2.  Illicit Financial Flows, stolen assets, and organised crime
3.  Equal opportunities laws, policies and practices
Anti-Corruption efforts will ensure access to quality education to all South Africans by ensuring that resources are not diverted for selfish motives and where such has occured, perpetrators are brought to book in such a way that others will be deterred.  Strengthening anti-corruption institutions will ensure good governance and will build the capacity of these institutions to prevent and detect illicit financial flows and recover already stolen assets.  Law enforcement agencies will also be strengthened by employing officials on merit.  Integrity testing will also be introduced to ensure that only employees with integrity are recruited and remain in the law enforcement agencies.  This will help in fighting organised crime.  Equal opportunities laws, policies and practices should be based on merit and integrity.

My country Japan has long-standing issues of gender inequality. Global Gender Gap Report 2022 by WEF ranks the country as 116th, significantly lower compared to fellow OECD countries. The study found that the challenges especially lie in economic participation and political empowerment. Therefore I chose two indicators from the SDG 5. The country is also not inclusive in terms of immigrants - therefore, 10.2 political, social, economic inclusion for all the population is also crucial for Japan to enhance inclusiveness of the society.

I believe if there is commitment from all Kenyans and especially the political leadership to fight corruption, then the country can be transformed.

There are too many of these targets that are relevant for Guinea-Bissau, a country that has been on the verge of being considered a failed State for decades. Nonetheless, I think that here, one needs to change approach and focus on small scale (scalable) interventions focusing on real change that can be achieved now for aiming at transformational change in the future. Therefore, I would highlight: 4.7: promoting a culture of peace and non-violence (focusing on basic education); 4.a: improving education facilities (using public funds and resources transparently to improve the quality of schools and classrooms. If children and young people think they are being valued and respected, there will be a chance for them to try to change things as well); 10.3 equal opportunities laws, policies and practices (Guinea-Bissau is still known for practices that exclude entire population groups, acting upon these and inviting ALL to the table will increase transparency and participation).

# data[].attributes.body
The top 3 targets I have chosen aim to achieve a peaceful, just and inclusive society, according to SDG 16.
1. To achieve a peaceful society, a culture of peace and non-violence.
This specifically refers to education and how Brazil is a naturally violent country: parents tend to discipline their children through violence, children play violent video games, there is a current debate about the use of weapons for private use, legislators verbally abuse one another in Congress etc. Acknowledging one's difference and aiming for peace and non-violent solutions is unfortunately not seen as a possibility for many Brazilians.

2. To achieve a just society, equal opportunity laws policies and practices are part of the top 3 targets chosen. Discrimination due to race, gender, religion, origin, and others are common in Brazil, sometimes being the butt of jokes. Policies and practices should mirror what must be expected of others - respect and consideration toward one's differences, treating equal opportunity as the social norm.

3. To achieve an inclusive society, inclusive urbanization. Higher levels of inequality occur in urban cities that are known for ignoring the poor during urbanization. As a consequence, unused buildings are common for drug users or squatters to dwell in. This decreases their quality of life as well as their neighbors. Inclusive urbanization also considers access to goods and services in the area.

I consider that in the particular case of my country it would be the following:
16.3 Rule of law and access to justice.- Because of the high levels of impunity that we have, notwithstanding that we have a lot of institutions and personnel asigned to work in the justice system.
16.4 Illicit financial flows, stolen assets, organized crime.- I don´t have knoweledge of the existence of a legal framework that permits the recovery of stolen assets.
16.6 Effective, accountable and transparent institutions at all levels.- We have one of the best transparency in the world, and the majority of public institutions comply with it, the problem is that the information in the official internet pages is fuzzy (Fox), and that impeds the people interested in that information can understand it and ask foy accountability.

# data[].attributes.body
Rule of law and access to justice (16.3)
Illicit financial flows, stolen assets, organized crime (16.4)
Effective, accountable and transparent institutions at all levels (16.6)

Although I see these three as the top priority in my country's national context, virtually all 16+ targets are to an extent applicable and relevant also for my country.

Fight against corruption can help achieve these priorities because effective fight against corruption is essentially a precondition for the first two priority targets I have chosen and the desired outcome of the achievement of the third priority. Corruption is either the cause/facilitator or the consequence of the failure to achieve these three goals which makes it the top priority of good governance.

# data[].attributes.body
1. No poverty
4. Quality education

Top 3 target for Nigeria are
16.3 - Promote the rule of law (evidenced by consistent reports of insecurity and injustice)

16.4 - Reduce illicit financial and arms flows, strengthen the recovery and return of stolen assets, and combat all forms of organized crime. While a lot of efforts to recover stolen assets are being made by the government, this s yet to translate to any substantial impact on the citizens. The increase in organized crime has further complicated issues of corruption in the country and needs to be addressed urgently

16.5 - Reduce corruption and bribery in all their forms. According to UNODC/NBS corruption survey report (2019), it is estimated that some 117 million bribes are paid in Nigeria on a yearly basis, the equivalent of 1.1 bribes per adult. The report also indicates public officials continue to be brazen about bribe requests. Addressing this particular form of corruption will have the greatest impact on citizens and go a long way in enhance integrity of institutions and citizens alike

# data[].attributes.body
I think that for my country these 3 targets are the most important: Rule of law and access to justice (16.3); Corruption and bribery (16.5); Institutions and policies for poverty reduction (1.b).
The ways to achieve those goals in anti-corruption context might be the following:
- building trust of citizens in the functioning of the judicial system by establishing transparent and accountable judiciary;
- developing an effective legal mechanism for holding accountable the players of bribery schemes;
- building legal framework and developing an effective mechanism for institutions that deal with reduction of poverty to work on a local and country level.

SDG 1 - No Poverty
1(b) Institutions and Policies for Poverty Reduction
The gap between the rich and poor continues to widen in Kenya which limits equal access to opportunities including education, health care, basic needs. Current statistics are that 7.8 Million Kenyans live in extreme poverty.
Policies such as increasing taxes on the super wealthy and the same used to healthcare and education.

SDG 10 - Reduced Inequities
Political, Social and Economic Inclusion
Economic inequality is mainly caused by systemic corruption. According to EACC, Kenya losses up to Kshs. 600 Billion  (7.8% of the Kenya's GDP) to corruption annually. This severely hampers economic growth and drives up the cost of living

SDG 16 - Peace, Justice and Strong Institution
16.4 - IFF, stolen assets and organized crime
Curbing Illicit financial flows and return of stolen assets will assist the country to mobilize its domestic resources to finance infrastructure projects and fund programs - poverty, youth empowerment, marginalized and ultimately the achievement of SDGs

16.5 - Corruption and Bribery
Corruption in the Kenya is rife. Combating corruption through prevention, prosecution and recovery of illicitly acquired assets may assist in regaining trust in public institutions.

16.6 - Effective, accountable and transparent institutions.
The Executive (National Treasury) is not forthcoming on the loans Kenya has borrowed internationally pushing the national debt close to Kshs. 8 trillion. The demand for transparency and accountability by the general public and push by civil society may yield positively

Rule of Law and access to justice, Corruption and bribery + Education on human Rights and gender equality. I believed that these 3 targets can helped realizing the SDG 16+ in my country context. As a post-conflict country, Cote d'Ivoire legal institutions were damaged affecting the judicial and legal system and reducing access to justice specially for women and girls in remote areas. The conflict situation also empower some people with illegal resources and these people are trying to keep the judicial and other institutions under their control by corrupting and bribing Government officials and civil society representatives. Women are represented with less than 20% in Government institutions and are considered in many cases uncapable as men and are given less chance to proof their capability to contribute to the country development. Education on human rights and gender equality will helped to change mentality and build more sustainable peace, just and inclusive society.

It was hard to select the top 3 targets:
1.  Target 16.3  Rule of law and access to justice.    I have seen how access to justice has been deteriorating in Guatemala, where it seems that the corrupt are rewarded.  In addition, a stregthened institutional framework is necessary to carry out investigative actions so that the cases are solid.  We also had the problem before that the cases became media coverage, with a political overtone, and it is not possible to operate in this way either.
2. Target 16.6  Effective, accountable and transparent institutions at all levels.  Without transparency, an opacity in public management is more likely.  It is important to establish mechanisms like access to institutional public information and that third parties promote transparency.
3. Target 16.4: Illicit financial flows, stolen assets, organized crime. A solid mechanism for the recovery of stolen state assets is important, and that it be effective, so that people think of carrying out acts of corruption know that they can lose much more. But it is important that the two targets I mentioned above work.

# data[].attributes.body
anti corruption  can help achieve:
- 16.3 Rule of law and access to justice
in that the relevant actors or perpetrators of corruption need to understand that they are not above the law that they will have to face serious consequences for whatever dishonesty they would have participated in
-16.4 Illicit financial flows, stolen assets, organized crime so that public assets' contracts must be clear and not be used illegally such that they end up stolen
16.6 Effective accountable and transparent institutions at all levels, these are a must have in Lesotho or rather enforcement policies must be clear and must be followed through

Paulin Kibendelwa-DRC           Public access to information Public access to information (16.10)In most corrupt administrations, opacity is the best way to hide its crimes. The more corrupt the country, the more information is hidden from the public. In the absence of information, bad governance finds fertile ground. It is therefore imperative to fight against corruption in a system if we hope to open access to public information.Rule of law and access to justice (16.3)Corruption prevents the poorest from accessing fair justice. In a country where corruption is systemic, the judiciary is breaking down and justice is not rendered fairly. It is impossible to speak of fair justice where corruption reigns. Only the strongest and wealthiest are entitled to good justice. Hence the fight against corruption contributes to access to justice for all.Forced labor, modern slavery and human trafficking (8.7)These three crimes have one thing in common: They are difficult to accomplish. Without the complicity of one or more high-placed people, they can be politicians, law enforcement officers or public administration executives. These cannot facilitate the commission of crimes if there has not been a bribe beforehand. Hence the fight against corruption can significantly reduce the commission of these.three crimes.

In my home country all 16 targets are critical. However, the most important are Target 16.5. Reducing corruption and bribery; Target 16.6. Developing effective, accountable and transparent institutions; and 16.3 Rule of las and access to justice.

# data[].attributes.body
1.  Decent work and Economic Growth ( Through ensuring transparency and equality in the recruitment process, eligible candidates will be able to get decent jobs on merit. By fighting corruption in the economic sector, the political and economic environment will be conducive for investment for both local and foreign direct investment, thus leading to economic growth.)
2. Rule of Law and Access to Justice. ( Anti-corruption efforts eliminate all corruption related barriers to accessing justice, thus enhancing access to justice through an independent and impartial justice system)
3 Effectictive, Accountable and Transparent institutions at all levels.( Anti-Corruption efforts ensure that accountability institutions are themselves free from corruption and are effective enough to check all sectors of the economy)

# data[].attributes.body
Fighting corruption needs holistic approach.  All SDG 16 targets are crucial.
Target 16.4: Reducing illicit financial flows and Strengthen the recovery and return of stolen asset. Corruption shifts wealth from the public to individuals. In fighting corruption, all identified illicit wealth are recovered to public use.
Target 16.5: Reducing corruption and bribery. Corruption affects all sectors and petty corruption affect individuals while eroding national wealth.
Target 16.6: Developing Effective, Accountable and Transparent Institutions. Weak institutions is the cause of corruption as it causes injustice, abuse of power and less capability of delivering public services

# data[].attributes.body
4.5 Eliminate gender disparities in education and ensure equal access to all levels of education and vocational training for the vulnerable, including persons with disabilities, indigenous peoples and children in vulnerable situations
5.2 Eliminate all forms of violence against all women and girls in the public and private spheres, including trafficking and sexual and other types of exploitation
16.6 Develop effective, accountable and transparent institutions at all levels

These targets are part of the interlinked conditions required for sustainable development. Corruption disrupts these and creates an environment in which humanity and its environment is neither safe nor secure. Anti-corruption strategies
strive specifically to combat this subversion and lead towards creating the types of societies envisaged to be optimal for all. Anti-corruption in education would ensure growing generational knowledge of and interaction with public information so as to hold our government officials accountable for their invested power.
Anti-corruption in gender issues especially related to violence against women and girls will lead to increased feelings of safety and security, trust in the justice systems and enhance adherence to the rule of law.
Integrity, transparency and accountability are engrained in the fabric of anti-corruption activity. It is through the correct exercise of these ideals that anti-corruption strategies can achieve the transformations required for sustainable development at all levels.

All targets could have an impact on anti-corruption efforts. However, these are particularly relevant and would make substantial contributions to sustainable development.
Rule of law and access to justice – need to have a system of checks and balances and ensure accountability for victims of crimes and human rights violations.
Public access to information – provides society the means to hold governments accountable and increases transparency in government functioning.
Institutions and policies for poverty reduction – having transparent institutions can help increase the resources used to alleviate poverty.

1. Institutions and policies for poverty reduction - anti corruption can led to strengthening fair trade practices and enhancing the competitiveness of the private sector to clear wealth and employment. This will drive poverty eradication efforts.
2. Public access to information - This is the foundation of transparency. With members of the public having information on government development initiatives, tenders and procurement processes, they can be adequately equipped to hold government officials to account of their commitment. This has been shown to significantly reduce corrupt practices.
3. Equal opportunity laws and practices - By opening public procurement and recruitment to equal access by eligible candidates, corruption and rent seeking will be significantly reduced. Anti corruption efforts will also enhance equal opportunity for all including the marginalized.

8.5 Equal pay for work of equal value. It is known that Austria has one of the highest Gender Pay Gaps within the European Union (19.9% of average gross hourly wage, EU-28: 16.0%) (Source: www.akeuropa.eu)

16.7 Inclusive and participatory decision-making. Others can cite different answers here, but what comes into my mind is the fact that those who were born in Austria to non-Austrian citizens and do not acquire the Austrian citizenship, although they have lived in Austria all their lives, are not eligible to vote.

Now, how can anti-corruption achieve the above?

As to 5.2, education plays a vital role in promoting respect among all genders at a young age. As to grown-ups, if male police officers, judge, police wardens are not corrupt, women will not hesitate to report their abusers.

8.5 will be achieved in the near future. As more and more women are encouraged to further their education, to compete for management positions and preference is given to them, the demand for equal pay will be listened to as they persevere. Anti-corruption will help achieve 8.5 as soon as there will be transparency in the payscales which should be applied to everybody irregardless of gender.

16.7 can best be achieved at the legislative level, with regard to my example. Generally speaking, I believe that transparency and inclusion are the keywords here.

As the context I work in , North West Of Syria . All the targets  are very important  to the context where this area had been suffering from war  , IDPs  , and escalations of conflict for 10 years , also there is no government  so I  prioritize  three targets : Public access to information   - Effective, accountable and transparent institutions at all levels - Illicit financial flows, stollen assets, organized crime    .

Public access to information: The public cannot  have access to information so in achieving  this goal   it will be a step towards anti-corruption  in the area  .

Effective, accountable and transparent institutions at all levels:  More  details and access to information  will lead to transparency to public institutions and lead to accountability .

Illicit financial flows, stollen assets, organized crime :

Corruption causes violence, terrorism and crime due to illicit finances, if the same is curbed no heinous crime activities would be undertaken. the same would apply for asset recovery. As during  these 10 years  since 2011 , a lot of assets  had been stolen , so working on returning  them will be great .

I vividly  the importance of all the targets set by the SDG16, I  join my voice and suggest that my country Cameroon puts a lot of efforts on the following three top targets:

1.  Target 16.5: Corruption and bribery;

2. Target 16.3: Rule of law and access to justice;

3. Target 16.4: Illicit financial flows, stolen assets, organized crime.

Cameroon justice sector and the relevant agency that has been put in place (CONAC) to strength governance, good management of public funds and assets,  and transparency remains a "toothless bull-dog" that can independently take decisions to make sure the public gain trust.  By efficiently integrating anti-corruption rules in civil and political institutions, the country's legal, institutional and juridical frameworks will get strengthened. This will not only reduce negative and harmful impact of the alluded three targets, but it will also go a long way to accelerate the implementation and achievement of the other 9 targets.

10.2 Public access to information: Major challenge, as the law on freedom of information is still not through (and even if, it includes major loopholes). Hence difficult to access information, lack of transparency supports frustration with politics, contributing to radicalisation of parts of the electorate (who then tend to vote for the most corrupted parties, but that's another story...).

16.6. Effective, accountable and transparent institutions at all levels: Basically the same as above. Lack of transparency of the powers to be and public institutions produces and ampifies general lack of trust in the res publica.

10.7. Equitable trade system. As a wealthy European state, Austria could and should do much more to contribute for the EU moving towards a more equitable trade system, as the current modus operandi, in a sarcastic way, uses development funds to cover up what trade policies cause (incl undermining good governance in consequence).

Nigeria, a multi-ethnic and culturally diverse state is facing a myriad of social, economic and security challenges. Applicable to Nigeria, these top 3 targets standout for me:
1. Target 10.2 - Political, social and economic inclusion. The current secessionist agitations in some parts of Nigeria are the result of perceived exclusions on political, social and economic opportunities. The anti-corruption efforts should support implementation of inclusive policies at all levels of government.

2. Target 16.6 - Effective, accountable and transparent institutions at all levels. The Nigerian people are constantly regaled with information on the massive corruption perpetrated in ministries, agencies and departments (MDAs) of the country. The activities of most MDAs are opaque at best and deny country, the needed services and benefits.  Anti-corruption efforts will help improve the effectiveness, accountability and transparency of the MDAs in Nigeria.

3. Target 16.4 - Illicit financial flows, stolen assets and organised crime. Nigeria loses a significant part of its revenue and resources to corruption via illicit financial flows, stolen assets and organised crime. Recent media reports show that most of Nigeria's crude oil is being stolen daily leaving the country without sufficient resources for development. Anti-corruption interventions can support the Nigerian State towards addressing this huge problem.

Although I do recognize the importance of all the targets set by the SDG16, I would suggest that my country puts a lot of efforts on the following three top targets:
1. Target 16.3: Rule of law and access to justice;
2. Target 16.4: Illicit financial flows, stolen assets, organized crime;
3. Target 16.5: Corruption and bribery

My country, Democratic Republic of the Congo, is reputed for its natural resources. However, all these resources hardly benefit to its citizens due to many factors, including corruption, bribery, illicit financial flows, stolen assets, organized crime, lack of rule of law and lack of access to juridical institutions.
By efficiently integrating anti-corruption in civil and political institutions, the country's legal, institutional and juridical frameworks will get strengthened. This will not only reduce negative and harmful impact of the aforementioned three targets, but it will also foster the implementation of the other 9 targets.

Liberia experienced civil conflict between 1989 and 2003 and all of its systems and infrastructures for peace, just and inclusive societies were all broken down. However, with the election of a new government in 2005 we experienced the reconstruction and reactivation of some of the broken systems up to 2017 when a new administration was elected. Currently, we have a country that is experiencing a serious breakdown when it comes to the fight against corruption. Therefore I believe the following three targets will be very important in my country:
1.   16.3 Rule of law and access to justice is key to sustaining the fragile peace we are currently enjoying

2. 10.3: Equal opportunity laws, policies and practices

3. 16.6: effective, accountable and transparent institutions at all levels.

Top 3 targets:
1. 16b: Nondiscriminatory laws and polies
2. 16.a International institutions to prevent violence, terrorism and crime
3. 16.4 Illicit financial flows, stollen assets, organized crime
Anti-corruption can help by ensuring 16.b all laws and policies are applied equally without discrimination to all citizens especially in punitive measures applied to corruption. Corruption causes violence, terrorism and crime due to illicit finances, if the same is curbed no heinous crime activities would be undertaken. the same would apply for asset recovery.
