Sefydlwyd WCIA, Canolfan Materion Rhyngwladol Cymru, ym 1973 i fod yn 'llais Cymru yn y byd' - gan hyrwyddo achos Rhyngwladoldeb a ddechreuwyd gan sylfaenwyr Teml Heddwch Cymru o 1938. Mae Canolfan Materion Rhyngwladol Cymru yn parhau â'r gwaith hwn heddiw - gan agosáu at ei *50fed Pen-blwydd* yn 2023 - prosiectau blaenllaw yng Nghymru ar Ddysgu Byd-eang, Gweithredu Byd-eang, Partneriaethau Byd-eang a Threftadaeth Heddwch, yn ogystal â gweithredu fel gwarcheidwaid a rheolwyr llogi/lleoliadau ar gyfer Teml Heddwch ac Iechyd eiconig Cymru.
