Unfortunately, the close interdependence fostered by our societies also provides a fertile ground for the emergence of stereotypes, prejudices, and racist and discriminatory attitudes built over generations through collective imaginaries. These stereotypes hinder the resolution of structural inequalities, which in turn negatively affect ethnic minorities in our countries, and reproduce social asymmetries based on cultural diversity.
