Summary/Abstract: In a society considered the society of knowledge that determines the accentuated dynamics of the global social life, there is a need for an education system that can respond to the challenges of the third millennium. It is necessary to focus efforts and attention on the modern and postmodern education systems on the worldwide level. From the perspective of the education analysis and intercultural opening, the education projects certify the change of the traditional educational practices on the basis of some new principles such as: education for all, equal opportunities, partnership in education, global education, lifelong learning, inclusive education etc. Intercultural education aims to develop education in the spirit of recognizing the differences that exist within the same society. Education designed within the framework of intercultural perspective will deal with the relations between the school and other educational spaces; it will overcome the walls of the school, extending and creeping itself in informal activities.
