Examples of our current projects and activities:

Each year, we organize our annual congress in a different country. The Head Congress Organizer chooses her team and makes sure that the organization of the congress runs as smoothly as possible. The tasks of the team are various, e.g. program design, search for speakers, on-site organizations, congress website, search for sponsors, budget, etc. Our last congress took place end of October 2007 in Ravensbrück, Germany.

Besides our main annual event, the congress, we organize a number of trainings and workshops, such as a Young SIETAR Day at the SIETAR USA conference, a Young SIETAR Strategy Workshop, Train the Trainer workshops and others. The initiative often comes from our members and this way we want to give them an opportunity to try out their own methods and training ideas. Have a look at our events section for latest initiatives and further details.

The newsletter team is a group of dedicated people who publish the Young Interculturalist Young SIETAR?s very own newsletter. It functions as a valuable source of information on the recent developments in the intercultural field and covers a variety of topics, all related to the intercultural field. The Young Interculturalist is a service for our members.

Is taking a break. Will be back soon!

The Intercultural Database provides members a collection of references from the intercultural field (books, dissertations, thesis, authors, articles, essays and more). It can be seen as the laboratory of Young SIETAR and provides an excellent source of information.

The Marketing Team creates promotional materials such as posters, brochures, info sheets, sponsorship proposals etc. to help promote our vision and to attract sponsors.
