The work of ARYI is based on action plans developed by over twenty ARYI country and regional teams that are implemented at community, national, sub-regional and continental levels. <o:p></o:p></span> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11;">ARYI is comprised of organizations and individuals linked by ARYI Regional and Country Representatives, program coordinators and volunteer staff.
