Xenophobia is an unreasonable fear or hatred of foreigners or strangers. Some people seem to hate some similarities between us. I really don’t understand it because it is our differences that makes us an unique individual, I mean what we do, how we think, what we say, how we behave to each other is what defines our individuality.
There are many institutions fighting against xenophobia that comes multiple times associated with racism and discrimination. These associations like UNESCO are trying to preserve the diversity in multi-ethnic and multicultural societies, to fight against racist propaganda in media (especially in cyberspace), to develop new educational approaches (elaboration of teaching materials), to develop scientific research and reflection on the phenomena of racism, discrimination and xenophobia.
Xenophobia appeared in association with certain scientific developments and the process of globalization. To fight against these new threats of violent inter-ethnic conflicts in many parts of the world we must accept the differences around us.
