In our complex modern society it’s necessary to bring up children to meet and discover the
differences and similarities typical of reality. To reflect upon diversity let them overcome superficial
judgements and get used to comparison, it contributes to create a positive atmosphere where each
one can feel accepted and can express himself/herself at his/her best. It’s important to create
occasions to let children reflect, face each other and talk about these topics, aiming at promoting
every day the education to life in common and to peace, meant as: research of solidarity attitudes,
learning through experience and comparison, research of solutions to conflicts. In order to plan
interculture, it’s important to have a strong identity and to show sense of responsibility; with this
deep motivation school becomes a place where it’s possible to learn to make interculture, giving
value to history and research, improving analysis and invention, accepting and recognizing other
people, creating the premises for a culture of tolerance, stopping the cultural homogenization and
making diversity a real treasure, a new educational paradigm.
