We help people communicate across their differences and provide expert information and assistance in intercultural issues. We work to develop quality standards and ethical norms for intercultural work and promote exchange of ideas and experience in the intercultural field.
The purpose of SIETAR is to encourage the development and application of knowledge, values and skills which enable effective intercultural and interethnic relations at individual, group, organization and community levels. As such it assists the creation of intercultural competence through paper and online publications, educational events, regional meetings and congresses, as well as professional networking and information sharing worldwide.
