This publication focuses on the first-mentioned role that stakeholders play: holding their governments to account. The ‘accountability role’ of stakeholders is not only explicit in the narrative of the 2030 Agenda, including its call to ‘Leave No One Behind’. It is also refined and supported by one entire goal: SDG 16, which promotes, inter alia, effective, accountable and transparent institutions (16.6), responsive, inclusive, participatory and representative decision-making (16.7) and access to information and fundamental freedoms (16.10) as well as targets on Peace, Justice and Inclusion across SDGs.3 SDG 16+ can thus be seen as enabling stakeholders to play their accountability role.
