Abstract

This study aims to discuss the importance of Interculturality in the field of Education. It delves so the concept of culture from different authors to the thought of the philosopher Raúl Fornet-Betancourt reflect the contributions of Intercultural Philosophy in Education. When we think about the interstices of culture, we aim to provoke reflection for a topic that seems to have been so widely discussed by various areas of knowledge, including Education itself. However, to think about Culture within the current context in which we live requires us to essentially understand the complexity of relationships between various cultures. Interculturality presents itself as an ethical demand of recognition of the other, in which dialogue becomes an exercise of justice.
