In the world there
are diverse people
There are more people on Earth today than ever before in its history. Some are in the countryside and others in towns and cities. Some are located in the farthest deserts. Others are in large urban centers with millions of inhabitants.
Diversity
Skin color is also very diverse. Among the first are the so-called "blacks" or Afro (so called because of their origin in Africa). Those of fair complexion are commonly called "whites". People who come from South Asia, including those from India, have rather dark skin, but there have been some populations considered white since ancient times. Native Americans have a skin called "copper" because it resembles the color of copper.
Environmental influence
It is shown that the physical characteristics of human groups developed to adapt to the environment in which they live.In many places in the Americas such as the Caribbean or Brazil, for example, a large sector of the population has characteristics of the original indigenous people.
Great cultural areas in the world
The cultural diversity of the world is very complex and difficult to establish geographically. However, if the main factors (language and religion) that shape world cultures, at least seven major cultural areas on the planet can be distinguished. Not all have the same expansion dynamics.
Cultures of the world
A culture can be described as a human group that has its own history, assimilated way of life, that is, customs, language, religion. The oldest cultures in the world were hunters and gatherers. They roamed the territories in large groups following the animals that hunted and gathered the fruits of nature.
Need and importance of dialogue
Some diseases have been cured with medicines that Amazonian cultures knew where modern advances do not exist. Since they knew their environment, they could use it to take care of their health No one should think that their own culture is superior and that of others is inferior, because of the color of their skin or because of the religion they practice, worse still because their members are poor . These attitudes are called discrimination and racism.
Ecuador, which is multicultural. The latter is only a finding of reality, because it is not enough that cultures coexist, but they must relate to each other with mutual respect, but to consolidate in common space. That is called interculturality.
Ethnic diversity in the world
In 2016, the Washington Post published the results of a global survey on ethnic diversity and on the percentages of ethnic tolerance of the world's people. Having examined the comparative data, it was evidenced that people belonging to less ethnically diverse geographic areas show low rates of tolerance (with exceptions, they are more racist).
Percentages of ethnic tolerance
When asked to choose their neighborhood from among ethnically distinct groups of people, they said they didn't want them as neighbors. On the map, the blue color indicates the percentages of the most tolerant human groups and the warm colors (purple, pink and red) are the least tolerant people.
