Analysis of Intercultural Education in higher education. The case of the Autonomous Community of Andalucía

Abstract

The migratory phenomenon and interculturality are social realities attended by educational institutions at different levels. In recent years, studies focused on this field of knowledge have intensified and, as a consequence, this work aims to show how training in Intercultural Education is integrated into official Andalusian university degrees. From a qualitative analysis perspective, supported by documentary analysis (study plans and teaching guides), the reality of 4 universities is comparatively approached. The results reflect differences in the treatment of Intercultural Education and a certain relationship is inferred with the migratory balance. Finally, an improvement proposal is made to help optimize university training in Intercultural Education.
