The existence of different ethnic groups and cultures will have a psychological dimension, racially, religiously, ethnically and linguistically, which disregards it can have destructive effects and great social problems. The term multiculturalism or cultural pluralism expresses the inevitable relationship between cultures and racial segregation, based on the expansion of relations between countries, this diversity and plurality are of particular importance in the light of education through the adoption of specific policies and measures.
