A PANEL DISCUSSION On THIS MATTER OF CULTURE - Evolving World of Multiculturalism, Globalization, Migration and Connectivity
Multiculturalism in contemporary accelerated globalization is profoundly different
from the past, but cross-cultural relationships are not a guarantee for lasting peace
and happiness, with it comes a great deal of understanding, tolerance and acceptance.
These issues raise a question to the rapid acceptance of globalization where on one hand people feel the need to adapt to western cultures and on the other, find it difficult to maintain their own traditions. Hence, it is very important to create a balance between cultural heritages and also protection of one’s cultural identity and enriching it with what other cultures can bring to us.
