Inclusive and multicultural education includes practical strategies and critical reflections that enable an education for social justice at the earliest level of education. We will explore human diversity in terms of differences in abilities, gender, sexuality, nationality, geographical origin (rural / urban, north / south), religion, social class, ethnic group, language or dialectal variant, to name a few of the "differences that make a difference" within and beyond school contexts. This implies an "attention to (cultural and functional) diversity" that transcends a focused approach to the problems and the particular needs of individuals to address the systematic processes that contribute to convert simple human differences into inequalities. We will examine the connections between educational environments and other sociocultural environments relevant to young children: the family, the media and popular culture, local and global communities, nation-states and transnational migratory relationships, nationally and internationally recognized human rights. We will uncover and analyze presumptions, stereotypes and prejudices that are produced and and reproduced in these social contexts.
