The Internationalization and Outreach Committee was formerly one of the committees involved in the Organization for Transformative Works.

The OTW website describes its role:

Internationalization & Outreach are the OTW's in-house diversity consultants and lobby group. We are dedicated to enriching the cultural, linguistic and fannish diversity of the organization and its projects by contributing opinions and advice to other committees, and by amplifying and supporting concerns relayed to us. In 2012, we will also start planning (and possibly conducting) outreach campaigns to underrepresented fannish communities with the help of ambassadors from those communities. We are looking for members from diverse fannish and cultural backgrounds. If you can't sign up permanently, but would be willing to help as a stand-by advisor, we would also love to hear from you!
