Seattle Isfahan Sister Cities Association SISCA

We are citizen volunteers – Iranian-Americans and allies – from the greater Seattle area who seek to reverse decades of hostility between the United States and Iranian governments by developing people-to-people relationships between our two countries.

The goal of the Seattle–Isfahan Sister City Advocacy (SISCA) is to build a community in Seattle to support and incubate nonpolitical, people-to-people collaborations with Isfahan, Iran. We work to emphasize our common humanity and shared aspirations and to support finding practical roads away from confrontation and war.

We seek to develop collaborations between students, teachers, city government and business leaders, artists, writers, poets, musicians, athletes, professional people, workers, religious leaders, and other groups with shared interests. In the long term, we hope to establish an official sister-city relationship between Seattle and Isfahan.
