Sažetak
With the rapid changes in social diversity, higher education institutions are presented with the challenge, but also the opportunity, to encourage intercultural dialogue, which fosters the universal respect for human rights, peace, and justice. This dialogue is an on- going process and depends on the willingness of its participants not only to share their views, but also to be open to accepting diverging opinions, diversity as an enrichment to our environment, and critically analyzing even their own culture. This paper focuses on the importance of intercultural dialogue and provides a range of activities (discussion topics and creative writing tasks) that have been carried out at the Faculty of Teacher Education (University of Rijeka) and the Rochester Institute of Technology in Zagreb (Croatia) and have proven useful in encouraging intercultural dialogue and improving the students’ intercultural competence.
