About this ebook

This collection of essays highlights theories and several of the excellent practices that are currently taking place in many European countries which integrate intercultural, multicultural and transcultural approaches as part of its education, health and mental health services. The book details numerous projects that are currently engaging in cutting-edge research related to interventions with culturally diverse clients. It serves to share information, theories and knowledge so that insights gleaned from one country can be shared across all European states, as well as countries across the globe. The volume addresses the question of ethnic, cultural, religious, gender and power diversity, its points of tensions and psychopathology, and its place of resilience and wellbeing.
