What is intercultural dialogue and why is it so important?
The concept of intercultural dialogue is central to both the British Council and the Active Citizens programme. It encourages communication between people of diverse backgrounds on both a local and a global level. The British Council’s overall approach to intercultural dialogue provides the UK with the framework needed to build lasting international relationships based on trust and understanding. Successful intercultural dialogue depends on people listening respectfully to people from other cultures in order to explore their diverse viewpoints and values.
