The mission of AAI is to build hope and empower communities afflicted by armed conflict and severe poverty. We believe that peace, security and respect for human dignity are inseparable. Our goal is to develop programs as sustainable models that can be replicated globally. Our people-to-people initiatives integrate health, education, arts and livelihood as a basis for mediation. By building Hope, we overcome the hatred propagated by terror organizations. The success of these cost-effective models shows that empowering impoverished and conflict-plagued communities strengthens international security, stability and peace.

The Human Development Foundation has been operating community-building programs in the several poverty-stricken areas of Pakistan for 10 years. HDF follows the Human Development philosophy of "helping people help themselves" HDF has mobilized and organized communities and helped them build and staff health care facilities, open and staff schools, build dams and water pumps so entire villages could have fresh, safe drinking water, build roads to join communities and create micro-credit programs that allow individuals and communities to break the cycle of poverty and have a sustainable opportunity for self-sufficiency. HDF provides a grassroots level, multidisciplinary approach to development that is increasingly being viewed as the most applicable by both academics and practitioners in the field. In each year of its existence, it has grown and has helped, at the grassroots level, more and more people. Today, over 200,000 have been direct recipients of HDF services.
