In 2015, Kazakhstan signed a document for further global development at the UN summit, noting that the goals and guidelines of the SDGs fully coincide with the priorities and objectives of Kazakhstan.
One of the tasks of the SDGs is to promote the rule of law at the national and international levels and ensure equal access to justice for all.
What is the essence of this goal? This goal is to promote the creation of a peace-loving and open society in the interests of sustainable development, to ensure that justice is achieved for all, and to create effective, accountable and broad participation-based institutions at all levels.
What should be done to achieve this goal? In order to achieve peace, justice and transparency, it is important to carry out joint work on the implementation of long-term solutions aimed at ensuring universal participation of the state and civil society in the reduction of violence, the administration of justice, the fight against corruption and management processes on an ongoing basis. Freedom of expression in private and public life must be guaranteed. People should be able to participate in making decisions that affect their lives. Laws and policies must be applied without discrimination in any way. Dispute settlement should be carried out on the basis of the existing political and judicial systems. The principle of complete denial of all corruption phenomena should be introduced everywhere.
