UNODC’s E4J Initiative to Promote the Culture of Lawfulness
The Education for Justice (E4J) initiative seeks to prevent crime and promote a culture of lawfulness through educational tools and resources designed for primary, secondary, and tertiary education levels.
It is a component of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) Global Programme for the Implementation of the Doha Declaration. These tools and resources help educators teach the next generation to better understand and address problems that can undermine the rule of law.
Education is UNESCO’s top priority because it is a basic human right and the foundation on which to build peace and drive sustainable development. UNESCO is the United Nations’ specialized agency for education and the Education Sector provides global and regional leadership in education, strengthens national education systems, and responds to contemporary global challenges through education.

UNESCO, as the United Nations’ specialized agency for education, is entrusted to lead and coordinate the Education 2030 Agenda, which is part of a global movement to eradicate poverty through 17 Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.
Education, essential to achieve all of these goals, has its own dedicated Goal 4, which aims to “ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.”
The Education 2030 Framework for Action provides guidance for the implementation of this ambitious goal and commitments.
