Our Theory of Change
Our Approach
Our Framework
In 2015, during his tenure as the 8th Secretary-General of the United Nations, BKMC Co-chair Ban Ki-moon led the adoption of two major commitments which promote human dignity for all while protecting the planet. Together, they establish the framework of the BKMC and build a roadmap for humanity toward a better future. They call to eradicate extreme poverty with strategies that build economic growth and address a range of social needs including education, health, social protection, and job opportunities while tackling climate change and environmental protection.
The Sustainable Development Goals or Global Goals are a collection of 17 interlinked global goals designed to be a “shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future”. The SDGs were set up in 2015 by the United Nations General Assembly and are intended to be achieved by 2030.
The Paris Climate Agreement adopted at the 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference by 195 countries is a legally binding global climate change agreement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, tackle the climate crisis, strengthen resilience, and enhance abilities to adapt to climate change before the end of the century.
