Cultural education is a field of education in which teaching and learning are systematically directed toward the understanding, appreciation, and critical interpretation of cultural expressions, practices, and heritage within their social and historical contexts ^[1][2][3][4]. It involves structured curricular and co‑curricular activities that explicitly address elements such as cultural heritage, the arts, languages, traditions, and symbolic representations, and that are designed to develop learners’ cultural knowledge, awareness, and interpretive skills ^[1][2]. Cultural education is characterized by the intentional use of cultural content and experiences—such as artistic works, heritage resources, and intercultural encounters—as organized learning resources for fostering cultural awareness, intercultural sensitivity, and the ability to relate one’s own cultural background to that of others ^[2][3][4]. Within broader educational programs, cultural education denotes the set of educational goals, contents, and pedagogical approaches that focus explicitly on culture and cultural diversity, rather than treating these aspects as incidental or purely illustrative material.
