The International Mars Exploration Working Group (IMEWG) is a coalition of space agencies and institutions around the world that seeks to advance our collective human and robotic future on Mars by:

• Educating each other about ongoing Martian exploration efforts from around the world.
• Providing a forum for the coordination of Mars exploration missions.
• Examining the possibilities for next steps beyond currently defined Mars missions.

By working together on strategic Mars initiatives of mutual interest, IMEWG members can share knowledge, costs, risks, opportunities and benefits for humankind.
