EDUCATION AND INTERCULTURAL COMMUNICATION: FROM THEORY TO PRACTICE

The article examines the impact of multiculturalism on education, particularly in Greece. As cultural diversity grows, schools increasingly reflect this diversity, requiring students to develop intercultural communication skills. The study analyzes the theoretical aspects of intercultural education and their practical application in teaching. Special attention is given to the challenges educators face in creating an inclusive learning environment, as well as strategies for improving intercultural interaction. The findings emphasize the need to integrate intercultural competence into curricula to prepare students for global communication. This research contributes to the discussion on modernizing education in the context of cultural diversity by offering specific ways to adapt the learning process. The paper also explores examples of successful educational practices implemented in various countries. The proposed recommendations may be useful for educators developing curricula that account for cultural diversity.
