As our domain continues to expand and evolve, we are continuously seeking volunteers to join our all-volunteer work force to provide materials and/or create web pages on all aspects of Istrian heritage. We are unfunded, so would also your appreciate financial contributions, regardless of size. See Sponsors.

We urgently need responsible people to translate our pages to and/or from the various regional languages, as well as English and German. If you or someone you know is willing to perform in this capacity or can otherwise help us to achieve our multi-cultural and multi-ethnic mission for Istria and its peoples around the world, please write to: webmaster@istrianet.org.

We have a tribute to the tragedy of September 11, 2001 at the World Trade Center of New York City which includes photographs and other contributions of various Istrians and one Dalmatian. To view, click here.
