Cultural mediation
Cultural mediation is generally used for situations in which people are informed about cultures, the arts or also scientific and social phenomena and findings, enter into an exchange about them and react to them - be it speaking or with other forms of expression. It is a collective term that includes different practices and is in a process of constant replacement.
Cultural mediation follows the etymological meaning of mediation in the sense of "middle, part located in the middle", as "that which is between two things". Cultural mediation refers to the role of a mediator between the individual, culture and society.
