Summary/Abstract: The unprecedented global changes (population movements both within states and internationally, the emergence of new forms of communities) led to tremendous demographic changes, with the increased social and cultural diversity becoming a common challenge in all the states. The intercultural approach of socio-cultural relations in today’s society is a response to this cultural diversity, a perspective that encourages dialogue and the relationship between different cultures. Intercultural relations imply respect for diversity, overcoming mistrust through dialogue and debates on the foundations of collective life and society models. Intercultural education integrates major changes and challenges, focusing on mutual understanding and tolerance, adopting general principles and objectives closely linked to other educational programs.
