07.02.2013

Mountain Partnership members the Aspen International Mountain Foundation (AIMF) and the Telluride Institute have created a Mountain Partnership regional hub for North America. The aim of the hub is to fill a void in representation for the region and to become a strong partner within the Mountain Partnership global community. 

“Establishing a Mountain Partnership Hub is an exciting opportunity for Aspen, the Roaring Fork Valley, the State of Colorado, and for all North American mountain communities,” said AIMF President Karinjo DeVore.

A fundraising campaign is underway to establish an operating fund as well as an endowment to support ongoing efforts of the North American hub towards mountain sustainable development and communication.
