The members of AEMRN are aware of the fact that there are people with very good learnt trade and profession living under diverse conditions in different parts of the world who, due to one reason or another, are unable to put into useful purpose both for themselves and the community, these talents. AEMRN will try to identify, reach out to such people, encourage and empower them to take part in continuous educational programmes so that the stimulus of their learnt trade can be rekindled, improved and once again contribute to the development of their community and the world at large. We shall collaborate with human peace-loving organisations in diverse projects geared towards betterment of the poor people and enhancing their capacity building. We shall provide liason between international health organisations both in the West and the African counterparts so that as a combined group we can at various levels augment one another's effort to fight Communicable diseases especially HIV/AIDS as well as non-communicable ones.
