Objectives


AIMF is working to establish a network of non-governmental organizations (NGO's), worldwide, with similar missions, working cooperatively.

AIMF is partnering with NGO's in the United States and in other countries to identify projects designed to promote sustainability in mountain communities and to support those community efforts to develop and implement local education and research programs.

AIMF believes education is vital if we are to encourage future generations of mountain inhabitants to protect and preserve their natural and unique habitats and heritages.
