Cultural Heritage – Cultural heritage is everything a community receives from the past, values today and wants to pass on: buildings and monuments, objects in museums, languages, music, dance, festivals, crafts, food and knowledge. Tangible heritage can be touched (immovable like temples and bridges, movable like coins and manuscripts); intangible heritage is lived and practised; natural heritage covers special landscapes and wildlife. Heritage gives identity, teaches history, brings income through tourism and links people across cultures. It is threatened by weathering, pollution, crowds, careless development, neglect and conflict, and is protected by conservation, laws, museums, heritage lists, education and local communities.

Conflict and coexistence · Human rights and ecology · Multicultural society

Cultural Diversity – Cultural diversity means many groups with different ways of life live together. Ethnocentrism judges others by your own culture; cultural relativism first understands a custom in its own setting. Prejudice and stereotypes block respect. Societies have a mainstream culture, subcultures and countercultures. Universal human rights set the limit: differences deserve respect, harm to people does not.

Doctrines and practice · Social roles and lives of believers
