Dear Members and Friends,

We wish to thank you all for having participated in the celebrations of  International Mountain Day 2014 and helped raise awareness about the importance of mountains worldwide. The celebrations took place in more than 30 countries in the form of conferences, hikes, runs and walks in the mountains, concerts, mountaineering equipment auctions, online photograph competitions, arts festivals, photo exhibitions, tree planting activities and a tea growers' workshop.

IMD was also featured virtually. The MPS produced a video, "Celebrating Mountains on 11 December," in English and Spanish which received about 1 800 and 1 000 views, respectively, on YouTube. Tweets using the hashtag #welovemountains reached 53 110 people. Dedicated Facebook posts on IMD in multiple languages reached more than 12 000 people around the world. Global media coverage of the day was also very extensive, with the national press in Algeria, Bangladesh, Chile, Iran, Italy, Morocco, Nepal, Pakistan, Peru and Spain among others, featuring news articles.

Attached you will find a report of all the articles published as well as a list of the events we have received so far.  If you held an event to mark IMD, please send us news and pictures as soon as possible so we can publish them on the IMD website and in the February issue of Peak to Peak of the Mountain Partnership.

Many thanks and best regards,

The Mountain Partnership Secretariat
