To learn about cultures is to appreciate differences – intercultural education

Weronika Cygan , Barbara Grabowska

Abstract

For centuries, there has been great ethnic and religious diversity in the territory of present-day Poland. It was not until the forced resettlement of the population after 1945 and the attempts to create a single, valid ‘Polish identity model’ that Poland became one of the most homogeneous countries in the world. It is more difficult for us to open up to people from other cultures when we are not in contact with them, and it is also easier to fall into the trap of stereotypes. The solution may lie in intercultural education, making it easier to open up to the ‘stranger’.
