African Mountain Forum (AMF) is a pan-African network of networks focusing on issues related to poverty and land use change, particularly those associated with the degradation of the mountain eco-system. An interim Steering Committee administers the functioning and coordination of African Mountain Forum through a secretariat hosted by the World Agroforestry Centre (formerly named ICRAF) in Kampala, Uganda.
The focus of African Mountain Forum is to build partnerships and cooperation among communities, practitioners and development agencies in the African region through exchange of knowledge, information, ideas and experiences. In line with the objectives of Mountain Forum, the purpose of African Mountain Forum is also to raise awareness and advocate towards creating and enabling social, economic and political environments for sustainable mountain development.
