Mutual Respect And Tolerance

In this course you will explore mutual respect and tolerance by examining the meaning of diversity and why it is important to modern Britain. You will look at why tolerance and respect is important to you and everyone else.

Introduction

Everyone is different, with a range of different beliefs and opinions that make us who we are. There are very few people in the world who will have identical ideas about everything, and that is part of what creates the richness and vibrance of global society.

Mutual respect and tolerance means understanding that we don’t all share the same beliefs and values. It also means allowing everyone to have their own ideas without trying to impose your thoughts onto anyone else. Being able to respect other people’s ideas is important in building honesty, trust, communication and compassion.
