Vision of the IMA:

IMA is aimed at the formation of culturally independent projects (plant ecosystem preservation, keystone species botanical gardens, field studies, documentation and translation, programs, etc) that reflect the natural healing tradition as it is "by the tradition for the tradition".

In addition to sustaining the local people and places who have upheld traditional healing systems for generations, the IMA seeks to create intercultural support and exchange around these healing systems where appropriate.

Through the generation of interest and resources, these individual cultures receive sustained support for their heritage and wisdom to continue into future generations as living transmission. The younger generation sees the multifarious benefits in continuing their healing traditions through the creation of documented, community-controlled pharmacopoeias.
