  Abstract:  In Romania there is an expansion of the “cultural diversity” concept, as a social and reference value in the process of training and development of the humanistic conception regarding the world. The regional perspective of the cultural diversity concept provides examples and explanations of the mechanisms of particular hypostasis of difference associated with the “ethnicity” dimension, giving it a certain consistency and intensity of demonstrations. This is the approach chosen with the intention to analyze the “cultural diversity” reality from the perspective of students as present or future teachers, who identified a number of factors that determine the variation of events and the meanings of “local” influences in the affirmation of cultural diversity, at the level of educational space. Our study is a plea for the need of integration of demarches to promote cultural diversity through the informational platform among learners. Higher institutions must follow more and more an increase of institutional initiative in the cultural diversity management plan, but also in the training of students for a world of interculturalism, through ways of organizing studies and certification skills in ensuring the training equivalence at a national and international level.
