• Every 7 minutes, a child dies somewhere in the world due to violence and one in 10
children is sexually abused before the age of 18. Every third Internet user is a child,
and 800 million use social media. Any child can become a victim of online violence
and the number of online child sexual abuse reports submitted to NCMEC increased
from 1 million in 2014 to 45 million in 2018. Violence in schools affects 246 million
children worldwide each year. Their peers have harassed one in three students at

school in the last month, and at least one in 10 children has experienced
cyberbullying.

● Selected goals and strategies for children violence reduction, its declared in Agenda
2030
• Significantly reduce all forms of violence and related death rates everywhere

• End abuse, exploitation, trafficking, and all forms of violence against and torture of

children

• By 2030, significantly reduce illicit financial and arms flows, strengthen the recovery
and return of stolen assets and combat all forms of organized crime

• Develop effective, accountable, and transparent institutions at all levels

• Ensure responsive, inclusive, participatory, and representative decision-making at
all levels

• Strengthen relevant national institutions, including through international cooperation,
for building capacity at all levels, in particular in developing countries, to prevent
violence and combat terrorism and crime

• Promote and enforce non-discriminatory laws and policies for sustainable
development.

• The SDGs' goals are strictly interlinked and cannot be executed or even evaluated

in separateness, particularly in the case of SDG 16. Across the 2030 Agenda, 24
targets and 33 indicators of seven other SDGs contribute instantly to peace, justice,
and strong institutions, often also referred to as SDG 16+. SSG/R actions not only
contribute to the accomplishment of SDG 16 but also to various other SDGs. One is
gender equality, where mainstreaming security provision, management, and
oversight is a critical component of suitable SSG and contributes to SDG 5.
Increasing the recruitment of female attendants in the police, the judiciary, and the
military is required to contact vulnerable parts of society, enable access to justice,

and prevent human rights violations. Also, sustainable cities and communities (SDG
11) concentrate on building inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable cities and
communities.
