Workshop 'Understanding and Managing Conflicts in the Multicultural School'

Some conflicts experienced by the participants at school will be analysed using Margarit Cohen Emerique's intercultural approach, which involves: decentralisation of the teacher, discovery of the cultural frame of reference and negotiation.
