Art And Art Education In The Context Of Intercultural Interaction

Abstract

International interaction is the interaction practice that occurs across international borders. It is the development and sharing of information, through verbal and non-verbal messages, in international settings and contexts. It is a broad field that incorporates multiple disciplines of communication, including intercultural, political, health, media, crisis, social advocacy, and integrated marketing communications. Intercultural Interaction adds the challenge of overcoming the communication barriers of different cultures, ethnic heritage, values, traditions, language, history, sense of self, and racial attitudes. These barriers must be conquered in order for the collaboration to succeed. Participants in an effective intercultural interaction must have inclusive leadership that understands and strives for diversity, while dealing with problems and conflict along the way.
