Welcome! Welkom! Velkommen!
        KIMO is your local government voice on marine pollution 

KIMO was founded by local municipalities with a shared concern for the state of the environment. KIMO is designed to give municipalities a political voice at the international level, to share best practice and to find solutions to marine political problems that affect coastal communities.

KIMO has become a pioneering environmental force which has contributed to a steady reduction in marine pollution in Europe's seas. This momentum must be sustained to ensure our oceans remain healthy for the benefit of vulnerable sea-life and for the people who reside on our precious coastlines.

A series of emerging environmental threats were the catalysts for KIMO’s foundation and remain the reasons for its continued work in the twenty-first century. Please explore our 'Who We Are' and 'What We Do' sections to learn more about what KIMO represents, the principles we believe in and the projects we coordinate and support.
