The work that we present below under the title Cultural Diversity and Interculturality in Higher Education. Experiences in Latin America offers a documented and novel analysis on the subject, accompanied by more than thirty studies on concrete experiences that allow to appreciate the richness and vitality that this field exhibits in Latin America, as well as the problems and challenges it faces. The volume brings together thirty-six studies of experiences of the types mentioned, each of which identifies achievements, obstacles and learning, and culminates in offering recommendations. This collection of texts is preceded by a study of regional scope that analyzes significant contextual elements, as well as salient aspects of the studied experiences, evaluates problems, challenges and opportunities, and offers a set of recommendations.
