Camp Kee-Mo-Kee is targeting 10 out of the 17 SDGs as fundamental to our mission at camp. Some of the goals relate to camp in a broad context, and some to more specific targets.

In 2015, all United Nations Member States adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which provides a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet. At its heart are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which are an urgent call for action by all countries - developed and developing - in a global partnership. They recognize that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth – all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests.
