Intercultural education as the key educational model for the social integration of immigrants.

The coexistence of individuals with different cultural identities in a given territory calls for the implementation of public educational policies based on both the acknowledgement of cultural diversity and the effective realization of the right to cultural identity of individuals within the community. In a multicultural context, an educational model should be implemented that facilitates an equal knowledge of the cultures involved, in order to provide an intercultural atmosphere that upholds self-ownership, the right to be different and the defense of human rights.
