Inviting interculturality to school in French-speaking Belgium

The waves of migration that have occurred since the second half of the twentieth century have contributed to make the Belgian population more multicultural and lead it to interact in contexts with multiple cultures. This can result in various attitudes, ranging from identity tensions to the acceptance of differences that allow the assimilation of the different cultures received by the host culture. This work allows me to position myself and to discover "intercultural mediation in schools". It is focused on the dialogue with students within the school about cultural issues, and how to create a link between parents and the school.

My personal journey has brought me to the heart of the question of my dissertation since I am of Syrian origin and in Belgium since 2012 the question of meeting different cultures is an integral part of my life. I have my own culture, but I discovered the Belgian culture which is itself "mixed" with other cultures.
