Who organizes Sister City events and exchanges?

Once a Sister City is approved, citizens then form a volunteer-run Sister Cities committee, a 501 (c) 3 organization. This committee is responsible for maintaining the partnership, and each Sister City relationship is unique. Sister City committees have hosted exhibitions of art from Sister Cities, organized educational exchanges, contributed to charitable organizations in the partner city, created international business development offices for Austin companies, established training exchanges for city workers, organized cook-offs featuring traditional cuisine, and more.
