Intercultural understanding

Students consider the different beliefs and values of a range of groups across languages, cultures, and nations, and develop an appreciation of the diversity in the modern period. They study the interactions of modern nations and develop an understanding of the nature, causes, and consequences of conflict, dispossession, and interdependence. Students examine different contemporary perspectives on historical experiences, events, ideas, and phenomena. They explore the relationships between different groups within society and their historical contexts, and consider how these contribute to individual and group actions in the contemporary world.
