Learning unit contents
Theme : it is when different cultures encounter one another that adaptive processes are put into place, ranging from the greatest integration to the deepest rejection. Demands for identity, genderisation, resistance and exchanges, in social structures and cultural practices allow both the limits and the flexibility of cultures to be understood. The intercultural space is variable, temporary or permanent, it is built by will or chance encounters, cultures and interests at stake.
The main subject covered changes each year. This year discusses about women and humor.
Study's subject : development strategies, models of communication, recognition and protection between different cultural groups and at all levels and in all sociocultural systems.
