    Whether you're a new member, a longtime member, or somewhere in between, we'd love for you to join us for our next SIETAR USA Campfire Chat!

    Tuesday, October 20
    6:00 p.m. EDT on Zoom

    Our Campfire Chats are informal gatherings designed to help members connect, ask questions, share experiences, and get to know one another. There is no formal agenda—just a welcoming space for conversation, networking, and community.

    If you're new to SIETAR USA, this is a great opportunity to learn more about the organization, discover ways to get involved, and meet fellow members.

    If you've been with us for a while, we hope you'll join us to reconnect, share your experiences, and help welcome our newest members into the community.

    Bring your favorite beverage, introduce yourself, and enjoy an hour of conversation with colleagues who share your passion for intercultural understanding.

    You are invited to attend!

    This year, we’re gathering to honor the knowledge, values, communities, and practices that sustain our work while exploring where intercultural practice is headed next through our conference's theme ROOT & REACH: Grounding Intercultural Practice While Stretching Into What’s Next.

    Join practitioners, educators, researchers, and community leaders from across the field for opportunities to learn, connect, reflect, and imagine what’s possible. Whether you’re looking to deepen your practice, exchange ideas with colleagues, discover new perspectives, or simply reconnect with the SIETAR USA community, there’s a place for you.

    Schedule at a Glance

    All International Members who want to join at the SIETAR USA Rate must contact admin@sietarusa.org to get the registration code. 

    ROOT & REACH: Grounding Intercultural Practice While Stretching Into What’s Next What does it mean to be both anchored and in motion — to draw from the deep wells of cultural wisdom, lived experience, and hard-won practice, while remaining genuinely open to transformation, challenge, and growth? ROOT & REACH: Grounding Intercultural Practice While Stretching Into What's Next invites practitioners, educators, researchers, and community leaders to gather in a spirit of both reflection and possibility. This conference is a space to honor what sustains us — our values, our communities, our foundational frameworks — and to ask, with curiosity rather than anxiety, where our field must stretch to meet the complexity of this moment. We welcome proposals that take seriously both the stability of roots and the risk of reaching: work that is theoretically grounded and practically alive, culturally honest and forward-looking, personally meaningful and collectively relevant.
