Impact Rankings 2022: peace, justice and strong institutions

The?Times Higher Education?Impact Rankings are the only global performance tables that assess universities against the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We use carefully calibrated indicators to provide comprehensive and balanced comparison across four broad areas: research, stewardship, outreach and teaching.

This table on?SDG 16 – peace, justice and strong institutions?measures universities’ research on peace and justice, participation as advisers for government and policies on academic freedom.

The list includes 809 institutions from 97 countries/regions.

Universiti Sains Malaysia leads the ranking, while Queen’s University in Canada and the University of Groningen in the Netherlands complete the top three.

The UK is the most-represented nation in the top 100, with 26 institutions, followed by Canada with 10.

The Impact Rankings are inherently dynamic: they are growingly rapidly each year as many more universities seek to demonstrate their commitment to delivering the SDGs by joining our database; and they allow institutions to demonstrate rapid improvement year-on-year, by introducing clear new policies, for example, or by providing clearer and more open evidence of their progress. Therefore, we expect and welcome regular change in the ranked order of institutions (and we discourage year-on-year comparisons) as universities continue to drive this urgent agenda.
