Sister city programs inherently involve a unique kind of partnership and involvement of the three main sectors of a vibrant, productive community: local government; business; and private voluntary sectors (civil society or non-profit organizations and individual citizen volunteers). Sister city programs, perhaps more than any other international program, work to eliminate cultural misunderstandings between countries and communities through direct dialogue and cooperation among people. Basically, anything that goes on in a community can become - and has, in one city or another - the subject of a sister city project, including healthcare, environment, arts, education, economic and business development, public safety, municipal training, youth, and much more.
