The world is a highly culturally diverse space, which makes it difficult for effective communication to exist between different cultures. As a result, the United Nations (UN) established 21 May of every year as the World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development in December 2002. This day aims to foster intercultural dialogue to achieve peace and development.

Below is a list of activities and items for all cultures to foster cultural inclusion.

Board Games for All

There are several board games on the market. However, not all of them are appropriate for all genders and races. Hence, there’s a need to develop more board games that for every people without causing harm to their values or beliefs.

Luckily, several board games on the market are appropriate for all genders and races. And the best part is, they are available in different categories, ranging from high-level strategy to narrative cooperation, among others.

Examples of these board games are Scrabble, Snakes and ladders, Mysterium, and Cathedral.

Ethnic Wears

The year is 2022, and the market is filled with fashionable clothes. However, one fashion style never goes out in style, regardless of the year or season: ethnic wear.

Ethnic wears are available in different forms: suits with glamorous dupattas, extravagant lehengas, cotton salwar, sharara suit, etc. Despite their elegance, not all ethnic wear will look great on you. The reason is, not every clothing type is right for every body shape. As a result, you need to find the perfect ethnic wear for your body shape if you want to go from beautiful to magnificent.

To do this, first identify your body shape. This will enable you to determine the type of cloth that will look best on you. It will also make it easy to choose the specific wear that best suits you.

Types of Body Shapes

Apple Body Shape

The apple body shape is well-proportioned, with shoulders that are broader than the hips. People with apple body shapes are usually big-bosomed and may have a fairly large tummy.

The best clothing type for this group draws attention to their beautiful arms and upper body and detracts from their torso.

Pear Body Shape

The pear body shape has a relatively slimmer upper body and heavier lower body. The best ethnic wear for this body shape draws attention to their waist and upper body.

Rectangle or Square Body Shape

This body shape features a proportional bust and hip. That is, it does not have any curves. For this reason, wear ethnic dresses that magnify the curves in the right places.

Hour-glass body shape

The hour-glass body shape features voluminous hips and bust, alongside a defined waistline. People with this body shape can easily pull off most ethnic wears, without having to draw attention to any body part. However, avoid wearing loose-fitting clothing that hides the curves.

The cultural diversity in the world makes it difficult for different cultures to communicate due to their differing languages. As such, it is necessary to learn other languages to successfully navigate the language barriers in the world.

Fortunately, technological advancements make it easier to master another language through language learning apps. As long as you have your smartphone, you can learn another language.

Some of the best language learning apps are Babbel, Duolingo, Memrise, Mondly, and Speakly.

Products to Help the Disabled

The world is largely made of people without any form of physical disability. However, more than 1/8 of the world’s population has one form of disability or the other. And another 1/5 of this 1/8, between 120 to 190 million, are highly disabled.

For people with special needs, certain items can make it easier for them to survive in the world. Examples are: Electric toothbrushes, Speech-to-text and voice recognition apps, Bendy straws, Hydrant water bottles, and Easy grip kitchen tools.

Conclusion

To bridge the gap between each culture, it is essential that we recognize and accept other cultures and beliefs. This involves focusing less on our differences and more on our similarities. Additionally, we need to open our minds to possibilities outside our imagination.

By doing these, we are, in our own ways, building a world where our differences will be looked on in awe rather than disdain. And peace, stability, and development will become the order of the day.
