More than 350 students took part in it. The participants cleaned up the mountain and planted trees. We also organised a walk for awareness."

"I have been a member of Mountain Forum for years now and I really appreciate having learnt a lot since then. In my work as a community affairs officer, I also encounter problems of people living in the mountains and I sympathise with them in their plight. Mountain Forum is indeed a wonderful venue to gather ideas and concepts on how we could help marginalised people in simple ways. Thank you and mabuhay from the Philippines."
- Genaro Basilio Jr., Community Affairs Officer, Provincial Government of Nueva Vizcaya, Philippines

"Mountain Forum updates me every day on what is going on in mountain regions in all the five continents. I even provide a newsletter within my organisation derived from the different news that Mountain Forum offers."

"I have been reading the Mountain Forum discussion on the introduction of the Jersey cow in a mountain village in the Indian Himalaya and how some consultants are pushing certain breeds in areas to which they are ill-suited. I downloaded the entire stuff, took out prints and shared it with some of my friends in my organisation. The parable of 'Six Cows and a Jersey' has become a bestseller in my town. It is changing hands from one person to another and has become a hot topic of discussion."
- Anoop Kumar, Rural Entrepreneurship for Arts and Cultural Heritage, India
