Intercultural Insights

InterculturalRelations.com is a free online interdisciplinary resource designed for the interculturalists around the world who study, teach, train and/or research in cross-cultural psychology, cultural anthropology, intercultural communication, multicultural education, race/ethnic relations (sociology), multicultural literature, sociolinguistics, TESOL, international business and other related sub-disciplines.

The Interdisciplinary Intergroup Relations Project consists of international scholars interested in understanding and promoting effective relationships between ethnic groups. While much attention has been focused on problems - from group-based violence to hate speech to discrimination and prejudice - our group wants to understand what happens when members of groups get along with each other. We all know that these successes exist: Inter-racial marriages, multi-national partnerships, and intergroup friendships are but three examples of these successes. As scholars we want to look at these successes and understand how and why they occur. As committed member of the world community, we want to translate our knowledge into practice by creating programs and interventions that foster more satisfying and effect intergroup relations.

International Academy for Intercultural Research
This is a new interdisciplinary organization that has scholars (and some practioners interested in research) from communication, psychology, education, anthropology and management. Its goal is to foster intercultural research.
