Convivialist multilingual education
The article aims at exploring the use of multilingual education to build a convivialist society. The article reflects theoretically on how to combine convivialist education and multilingual education. Today’s hyperdiversity in society faces a dual challenge in accelerating and unsettling climate change. The convivialist manifesto entails five key principles namely: common naturality where humans are interdependent with nature; common humanity whi…
The V a KE Handbook
"Values without knowledge are blind, while knowledge without values is irresponsible." This principle underlines the motivation to write this book. It presents VaKE, Values and Knowledge Education, a theoretical model based on constructivist learning theories, and many examples for its practical implementation in diverse educational fields. Thanks to its extensive theoretical foundation, the model opens up almost unlimited possibilities to tailor…
Using Digital, Universal, and Intercultural Didactics to Improve Higher Education—A Project Protocol for a Norwegian Interactive and Collaborative Improvement Study Concerning Master’s Level Courses i…
Digitalization in higher education is rapidly increasing and there is a need for an increased focus on digital didactics.

The objective of this manuscript is to describe the protocol for the project: Digital, universal, and intercultural didactics in a master course “T…
Missing links between intercultural education and anthropogenic climate change
How and why should intercultural education address anthropogenic climate change? The paper argues that anthropogenic climate change threatens biocultural diversity, leading to linguistic and species extinction and discusses the twofold preservation of cultural and biological diversity. The paper starts with a limited analysis of the research discourse from 2000 to 2019 on the climate crisis contained in the journal Intercultural Education. Lookin…
Facilitating intercultural education in majority student groups in higher education
The present article critically analyses the pedagogical efforts of two teachers to promote values education and intercultural reflection in their own educational practice. They teach in higher education in Norway and most of their students have majority backgrounds. Based on their teaching experiences with VaKE (Values and Knowledge education), the article discusses opportunities and challenges when working with values education in majority stude…
Developing critical and empathic capabilities in intercultural education through the V a KE approach
One of the core goals of intercultural education is to develop critical and empathic reflection on social justice, particularly as related to humanistic choices and how individuals can counteract exclusion. The present article analyses the Values and Knowledge Education (VaKE) approach, which is aimed at raising awareness about implicit value-oriented priorities in decision-making. Through the Human Development and Capability Approach, the applic…
How to challenge a culturalization of human existence? Promoting interculturalism and ethical thinking in education
What if culture appears to be a universal solution - and problem - to all human encounters in the multicultural school? When teachers explain the problems encountered by minority pupils simply by reference to their cultural (religious) backgrounds, one faces the danger of culturalization where the other's difference is explained only by his/her ethnicity. Culturalization is highly problematic because it emphasizes stereotyped inter-group differen…
Rethinking Antiracist Education in the Light of the Capability Approach
In anti-racist education, it is important to reflect on the pitfalls of the ideal of equality in order to obtain greater social justice. The capability approach contributes to discussing theoretically the anti-racist dialectical aim of equality and difference. In assessing the individual's capability to combine his/her own substantive freedoms within his/her specific living, it also gives the possibility to evaluate the concrete social arrangemen…
