The mission of ANMF is to promote the
advancement of medical training and practice in Nepal.
It is the firm belief of the
foundation that as with the problems in any other field, the primary
responsibility of resolving Nepal's health problems lies with the Nepali people
including medical professionals. There can be no substitute for
their own commitment and action in Nepal. However, as a U.S. based nonprofit
organization, the foundation is committed to supporting the Nepali people's
ongoing efforts to enhance their health status. ANMF will focus on improving the
quality of medical care, medical education and medical research in Nepal.
