Abstract

Intercultural communication constitutes a critical framework for understanding and navigating the complexities of contemporary multicultural societies. Positioned at the intersection of linguistics, anthropology, and sociology, it illuminates the dynamics of cultural diversity, inclusion, and the negotiation of social norms across differing cultural contexts. Within the discourse of sustainable development, intercultural communication emerges as both a conceptual and practical mechanism for reconciling cultural dynamism with societal continuity, addressing crises, and fostering ethical, solidaristic engagement. By examining the interplay of cultural norms, values, and communicative practices, this study foregrounds the significance of intercultural sensitivity as a foundational element in cultivating equitable, resilient, and cohesive communities in an increasingly interconnected and turbulent world.
