A good starting will be trying to harmonize basic scales like Major/Minor scale. You can try playing the Major scale on an instrument or audio track and try singing harmony with it.

Step 1: Record the major scale while singing on your phone recorder Step 2: Sing 3rds on every note over the recording Practice this till you get this right. This is a good starting point. It takes years of practice, a structured curriculum and a qualified teacher to learn singing in harmony.
