Peace is a necessary requirement for achieving sustainable development. Countries that sustain peace and mitigate the risks of conflict tend to be more developed than countries that are affected by conflict. Sustainable economic, social and environmental development and peace are mutually reinforcing. In contrast, conflict impedes economic activity and harms social development. Socio-economic vulnerabilities further heighten the propensity for conflict such that conflictaffected countries can easily spiral into more intense conflict. Consequently, conflict delays and inhibits progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals.
