What is Intercultural Prejudices

Transformative Intercultural Global Education
Stereotypes and social prejudices are factors that exert a significant influence on human interaction. They have been created by society through preconceptions about others, which can have negative impacts. Fear of the unknown leads to judgments without a solid foundation on a person or a place. Stereotypes and prejudices can contribute to misunderstandings, discrimination, and mistrust in interpersonal relationships. Overcoming them requires active awareness, willingness to learn and openness to experiences that challenge pre-established perceptions. Addressing these aspects in education is essential for mutual understanding and building a more inclusive and respectful environment.

Abstract
Education in a child's early years is vital to establishing the basis of his personality. In an increasingly individualized world, where people are less concerned about the problems of others and the spaces of freedom are often not respected, it is important to reinforce the work of empathy from childhood. Freedom is a word that is losing its true essence, its meaning has been distorted by its semantic satiety. This word is taken by society as a right, but the obligation is forgotten, which implies respecting the rights of others. The project carried out from the subject of plastic and visual education in the third year of the degree in primary education aims to work from the essence of the human being, from the condition that makes us differentiate ourselves from the rest of the animals. Thinking globally without observing differences should be the main goal of humanity. This should start in schools, the first contact with diversity.
