Purpose
Why does this SIG exist?
The purpose of this group is to –
- Gather knowledge on the topic of Migration as it relates to Interculturalism and Interculturalists
- Disseminate knowledge gained both to members of the SIG and SIETAR members
- Create a network to provide mentoring and support for members working in the field.
- Raise awareness inside and outside SIETAR of the Role Interculturalists can play in migration issues.

How do we achieve our purpose?
