Public reporting on university progress and performance related to SDG16 (Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions).
The “Published Progress – SDG16” focus area at PTUK focuses on documenting initiatives aimed at promoting peaceful and inclusive societies, providing access to justice for all, and building effective, accountable, and transparent institutions. PTUK implements applied research, educational programs, and community engagement projects that strengthen governance, enhance transparency, foster conflict resolution, and promote human rights awareness. These initiatives contribute to social stability, good governance, and the rule of law in Palestine.
Publishing progress under this focus area supports SDG17 by fostering multi-stakeholder collaboration and knowledge sharing with government agencies, NGOs, international partners, and other universities. PTUK disseminates case studies, research findings, and technical reports to inform policy, promote evidence-based governance strategies, and enable replication of successful interventions. Documentation strengthens institutional capacity and facilitates coordinated actions to promote strong and accountable institutions.
Through this focus area, PTUK integrates research, education, and community engagement to build peaceful, just, and resilient communities. Publicly sharing outcomes ensures transparency, builds collaborative partnerships, and fosters multi-level cooperation at local, national, and international levels. By linking academic research with practical interventions, PTUK contributes to both SDG16 and the broader objectives of SDG17, promoting peace, justice, and institutional effectiveness through coordinated and collaborative approaches.
