Dünya Uluslararası Müzik Yarışmaları Federasyonu

Dünya Uluslararası Müzik Yarışmaları Federasyonu veya kısaltmasıyla WFIMC (İngilizce: World Federation of International Music Competitions), İsviçre'nin Cenevre kantonunda 1957 yılında kurulmuş, diğer farklı kabul görmüş  kuruluşlardan oluşan ve geniş bir ağa sahip olan bir organizasyondur. Bu federasyon 120'den fazla müzik organizasyonlarını barındırıp, halka açık müzik yarışmalarının yardımıyla, dünya genelinde 15 ile 35 yaş arasındaki klasik batı müziği alanında yetenekli ve başarılı müzisyenleri keşfetmeyi amaçlar. UNESCO Uluslararası Müzik Konseyi'nin bir üyesidir.

Hedefler 
WFIMC yönetmeliğin maddelerinde 16 adet hedef belirlenmiştir. Bunlardan dördü:

 Çağdaş müziğin bestelenmesinin ve sergilenmesinin teşvik edilmesi,
 uluslararası müzik yarışmaları için olumlu bir imajın yaratılması ve aktarılması,
 bu tür yarışmaların fırsatlarının ve zorluklarının belirlenmesi ve bunlarla başa çıkılması ve
 bağlantıların ve işbirliğinin sürdürülmesi ve teşvik edilmesidir.
