Multiculturalism: Teacher’s Role in the Integration Process of Immigrant Children

Erasmus+ course summary
Migration is not a new phenomenon, but it is getting more relevant in our lives. Integration and multiculturalism are one of the most important elements for creating a diverse and open society. If we want to live in multi-cultural societies, it is important to teach our children how to be open-minded, tolerant and how to accept diversity. Kindergartens and schools need to cooperate in two different processes in integrating immigrant children into educational system and society and in ensuring intercultural environment to successfully run the educational process in globalised environment. Ensuring safe and encouraging multi-cultural environment is crucial for all children to develop their potentials. Strengthening values of multiculturalism and diversity can meaningfully contribute to personal development of all children (not only immigrant), their parents and teachers.
​"I truly believe the only way we can create global peace is through not only educating our minds, but our hearts and our souls." – Malala
