Our main aim is to preserve and enhance the Iberian and Latin American Heritage and to share it with the local community in Wales. To achieve this, we organise activities, events and carry out projects, either on our own or coproducing them with other like-minded organisations.

Whilst participating in our activities, our members are able to integrate into Welsh society and exchange their culture and heritage with other members interested in them. At the same time, they learn about and understand Welsh and British culture and organisations in order to navigate through the system successfully. Moreover, ILA-WALES CIC provides support and solidarity to any vulnerable members, such as asylum-seekers and refugees, and, if necessary, signposts them to the right organisation or individual in order to meet their needs and requests.

➡ Specifically, through our activities, events and projects, ILA-WALES CIC encourages and promotes:

➡ Physical activity and mental well-being (e.g. Ibero-Latin American Heritage Dance Project)

➡ Sustainability, which is at the heart of all that we do (e.g. Creation of a Community Garden)

➡ Creativity through art and creative writing, photography and film-making (e.g. Cartoneras Workshops & Photography Workshops)

➡ Language exchange (e.g. Spanish<>English Conversation Club)

➡ Digital inclusion (e.g. Tackling Digital Poverty Project)

➡ Discussion and exchange of ideas (e.g. Film Club)

➡ Reading and poetry (e.g. Mobile Multilingual Library & Poetry Recitals)

➡ Music training and concerts from the Ibero-Latin American diaspora (e.g. Musical Pals Project)

➡ Ibero-Latin American cuisine (e.g. Cookery Workshops)

➡ Education and other training, liaising with like-minded organisations
