Our world is shrinking, not only superficially as a result of high-speed travel, but due to the twin influences of accelerated global migration and social and mass media that ‘virtually’ knit together all corners of the earth. The genuine intermingling of peoples and cultures, however, lags behind these phenomena. Social inclusion and integration depend on a ‘meeting’ of languages and cultures. Particularly in the context of migration, ‘intercultural competence’ is an essential skill in oiling the wheels of inclusion into a new society. It is no less important, of course, to cultivate it in learners studying the language as a foreign language or lingua franca; cultural awareness is part of the holistic process of language learning. There is therefore a crucial need for educational resources that stimulate intercultural understanding, and while copiously theorized, practical direction and principles for developing materials for this are somewhat lacking. This chapter addresses this gap by attempting to steer a way through the theory to offer critical and practical tools for developing materials for intercultural awareness-raising suitable for a range of educational contexts. The chapter is informed by research in the fields of applied linguistics and intercultural communication, as well as by the experiences of language practitioners, and it includes materials design parameters and materials samples.
