Abstract

Annotation. Globalization and multiculturalism are two interrelated processes that are radically changing our society. In the conditions of growing cultural heterogeneity there is an urgent need to form a new personality capable of effective intercultural interaction. Tolerance, understood as active acceptance of cultural diversity, respect for other cultures and readiness for dialog, is becoming a key quality of a modern person. The new personality should have flexible thinking, empathy, intercultural competence and be open to new experiences. However, the process of forming such a personality faces a number of obstacles, such as cultural stereotypes, prejudices and political polarization. To overcome these barriers, it is necessary to create conditions for intercultural dialog and the development of tolerance through joint efforts of the state, society and educational institutions. In the context of growing multiculturalism, tolerance is becoming increasingly important. In order to successfully adapt to these changes, it is necessary to learn to distinguish between the positive and negative aspects of cultural diversity. Education plays a key role in developing this ability, helping people to maintain spiritual resilience in a rapidly changing world.
