The Welsh Centre for International Affairs (WCIA) was founded in 1973 to:

                - Raise awareness of global issues in Wales;

                - Campaign to promote world peace, human rights and
                  international understanding; and

                - Provide a key point of contact in Wales for international
                  bodies and institutions.
 
Today the Centre works towards its objectives through publications, exhibitions, seminars and events on a range of issues.  Such an internationalist vision is also central to the work of the following bodies housed here:

• United Nations Association Wales, which campaigns and educates to make the ideals of the United Nations a reality.

• The WCIA’s schools arm, the Council for Education in World Citizenship (CEWC-Cymru), which enables school and college students to understand global issues and develop the skills they need to become active citizens of Wales and the world.

• UNA Exchange, which brings young people from different countries and communities together for positive change, by co-ordinating short- and long-term volunteering opportunities abroad and in Wales.

• Cynefin y Werin / Common Ground - the all Wales network promoting international peace, social justice, human rights and equality.

• Cyfanfyd : The Development Education Association for Wales - a membership organisation working to promote Education for Sustainable Development and Global Citizenship (ESDGC) in Wales.
