Abstract

This article, based on debates and guidelines of cultural diversity and development raised by Agenda 2030, which projects it across all objectives, being assumed by UNESCO as of global importance, looking at it as necessary for sustainable development as much as biodiversity, seeks to problematize its relevance in the curricula, as an integral place of valuable knowledge. We start from the belief that cultural diversity is the reality of the dialogue for the development and affirmation of the exercise of human rights. It is a natural resource of human regeneration to creatively emancipate the development of humanity, constituting one of the greatest challenges for the curricula of the different educational systems in the world. From a holistic approach, we seek to interpret the place and time of cultural diversity in the curriculum. It is hoped that this article will contribute to highlighting the importance of cultural diversity and assuring visibility in curricula, an authentic way to respond to the commitment that the 2030 Agenda represents for inclusive human development, as a shared and plural creative citizen responsibility, to affirm harmonious development of humanity.
