GNU Libiconv

libiconv converts from one character encoding to another through Unicode conversion (see Web page for full list of supported encodings).

It has also limited support for transliteration, i.e. when a character cannot be represented in the target character set, it is approximated through one or several similar looking characters. It is useful if your application needs to support multiple character encodings, but that support lacks from your system.
