The EIB (Bilingual Intercultural Education) starts from pluriculturalism and the development of intercultural educational models, therefore attempting to play a role by giving theoretical and methodological elements to teachers for them to adopt interculturalism as a node reference in teaching practice in the States of greater Indian population density.
