-The Analysis Facilities (AF) Forum provides a community platform for those interested in contributing to the development of analysis facilities for use by HEP experiments, serving as a space to develop and exchange ideas. We interpret “development” in the broad sense, including the contribution of ideas from potential end users for functionality to support the analysis of HEP data, specification and planning of the facilities themselves, and technical developments needed to realize AFs. HEP experiments have their own internal processes for developing and deploying AFs; this AF Forum is intended to support and strengthen those efforts by sharing amongst a broader community the key ideas and developments. The AF Forum also collaborates with related [HSF Working Groups]({{site.baseurl}}/what_are_WGs.html), such as the [Data Analysis Working Group]({{site.baseurl}}/workinggroups/dataanalysis.html) and the [PyHEP Working Group]({{site.baseurl}}/workinggroups/pyhep.html), and with [WLCG](https://wlcg.web.cern.ch) and [IRIS-HEP](https://iris-hep.org) projects.
