Inter cultural dialogue .... A closer look

So what is culture?
We define culture as a set of values, norms, institutions and artefacts– we must be aware that there are many cultures even within cultures. All of them ideological, sociological and technological subsystems of our societies that govern interactions between people. Culture therefore refers to consumption of goods, productions of goods, construction of meanings and social relationships. Addressing intercultural learning within an organization and beyond therefore implies a complex set of measures. All recommendations should be based on the principal “nothing about us without us” which is essential for the sustainability of intercultural dialogue.
