Sharing the difference, since 1997...

NPO Tiempo Iberoamericano is an organization that seeks to deepen understanding of the wide-ranging culture of ideas through various activities, from language learning to dancing, exhibitions, or food-related activities. Tiempo Iberoamericano looks to stimulate joyful and lively human communication, through which people will respect the ideas and cultures of others, strengthening their mutual understanding. We hope this mutual understanding will then become a channel for genuine international exchange at the individual, corporate and national level.
