Peace, governance and equality
Democratic principles and good governance are increasingly under pressure due to weakened institutions and rising authoritarianism. In parallel, conflict and violence are on the rise, accompanied by a growing disrespect for international law and disregard for human rights, trends that are compounded by persistent gender inequality. The SDC invests in peace, governance, and equality, which is necessary to achieve a sustainable development impact.
