The International Academy for Intercultural Research (IAIR) was founded in 1997 and aims to provide a forum where senior intercultural researchers, academics, and trainers can exchange ideas, theories, research and successful training approaches. The Academy fosters high level research and scholarship on intercultural issues and all disciplines are welcome in the Academy.
Fellows in the IAIR are senior researchers who have made significant contributions to research in the field of intercultural relations, most commonly through books and a body of scholarly publications in relevant journals (e.g., the International Journal of Intercultural Relations). Typically, Fellows will have 7 or more years post Ph.D or equivalent degree, and have attained an academic rank equivalent to Senior Associate or Full Professor with tenure at a University or College.
