Opis

The main aim of this short collection is to draw the attention to some aspects of the challenges policing faces as a part of the 2030 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) agenda, adopted in September 2015. The goals range from poverty and hunger reduction through healthy lives, quality education, gender equality ,environmental protection, affordable and sustainable energy, economic growth and employment to reduction of world's inequality and climate change. Goal 16 "Promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, provide access to justice for all and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all level" for the first time highlights prevention and control of various manifestations of crime as the very significant developmental goal. SDGs clearly require service-and human rights oriented policing, based on evidence and information, a style of policing focusing on protecting the vulnerable and emerging challenges of organized crime, corruption and wildlife trafficking.
