Grundtvig Award 2008 European Association for Education of Adults Scholarship / Financial aid: read the announce please Date: N/A Open to: EU and non-EU citizens Announcement follows: The idea of interculturalism focuses on the inequality of power and recognises that racism exists and needs to be challenged. This concept sees cultural diversity as a strength that can enrich society and encourages interaction, understanding and respect between different cultures and ethnic groups. An anti-racist and intercultural approach is the development of strategies, policies and practices that encourage interaction, understanding and respect between different cultures and ethnic groups. This is essential to the development of an equitable and more inclusive society, where cultural diversity is valued and respected.
| Intercultural dialogue is also one of the core principles that should
underpin approaches in Adult Education. Consequently Adult Education
can have a central role in the generation of a more equal and tolerant
society. It can help to challenge inequalities of respect and
recognition by developing understanding for diversity and a sense of
the value of diversity.
