Abstract

In the recent years, there is a greater recognition of the importance of incorporating cultural diversity and interculturality as bridges of inclusion in university insti- tutions, mainly in the teaching-learning processes (their contents, approach and methodologies), in participatory action research and in the social-community link. The present work tries through the bibliographic review to determine the vision of the future of higher education in multicultural contexts, in a world that is increasingly technological and with the presence of risks such as the COVID-19 Pandemic. Thus, the recognition of interculturality and the dialogue of knowledge, are urgent needs that must be applied at all levels and models of education. Taking this into account, we can envision that the new generations are trained in the skills of the 21st century
