Smart City and Intercultural Education

The concept of Intercultural Education is analyzed throughout the planet. This definition should have given a new twist in recent years, as society and, in particular, cities have entered or intend to do so in the idea of Smart City, which implies the adaptation and preparation of the population and education that will take place towards this situation. With this idea, we started an investigation to examine whether, the cities that erect the seal of Smart City, take actions to integrate the entire population and improve social inclusion. After analysing documents from the centre and the implementation of Intercultural Education in different schools, through observation and interviews to teachers, at different stages and cities, defined as Smart City, we got that, no school undertakes any action respect the integration and social inclusion of the population in their classrooms. Leading us to conclude that the label of Smart city is adding new social disadvantages, leading us to, among our recommendations, that the concept of Intercultural Education should be renewed, including the idea of Intelligent Citizens for Smart Cities.
