Welcome to the International Relations Council of Riverside

The International Relations Committee of Riverside is vital in providing opportunities for local and global communities. We work to create meaningful connections between different cultures, foster collaboration between other regions and promote international understanding.

The Committee works to establish and maintain relationships with international partners by organizing professional exchanges, cultural programs, language courses, research projects, conferences, and other activities. Through these initiatives, the Committee provides members unique opportunities to learn more about global cultures, explore educational options abroad, and gain valuable experience in an international setting.

We are committed to offering outstanding international experiences that will benefit local and global community members alike. Building bridges through communication and collaboration create lasting connections that will lead to a more inclusive future.

Riverside is proud to be a front-runner and one of the first cities to build Global Ties and Sister City relationships through “citizen diplomacy.”
