Who we are
AIR – Academy for Intercultural Relations was founded by a mediator, linguist, and lecturer with years of experience in intercultural communication. Our team brings together professionals specialized in language teaching, cultural mediation, translation, interpreting, and the management of intercultural projects.
We share the belief that every language contains a universe of meanings and traditions, and that authentic communication arises from the ability to deeply understand another person’s world.
Our mission
To facilitate communication and intercultural understanding in all its forms.
We offer comprehensive linguistic and cultural services—personalized lessons, linguistic and cultural mediation, translation, interpreting, workshops, and events—designed for individuals, companies, and organizations seeking to overcome barriers and connect authentically.
We do not flatten differences; we value them. We believe that every language, every gesture, every tradition has its own unique beauty, and our role is to help recognize, understand, and amplify it.
We work so that communication becomes a space for meeting, not for conflict.
Our vision
A world where languages and cultures coexist in their richness, where differences spark dialogue and not division.
We imagine organizations and communities that communicate beyond linguistic and cultural barriers, turning diversity into a resource.
We want to contribute to a conscious society where mediation, listening, and respect for cultural nuances guide relationships—personal, professional, and collective—towards harmony and mutual growth.
