Geographical indications are deeply intertwined with the cultural identity, heritage, and traditions of local communities. The production of GI-linked products often involves collective efforts, shared knowledge, and intergenerational transmission of skills within tight-knit communities. By celebrating and preserving these cultural assets, GIs strengthen social cohesion, promote a sense of pride and belonging among producers, and reinforce the cultural distinctiveness of the region.

WORLD DAY FOR CULTURAL DIVERSITY, 21 MAY Held every year on 21 May, the World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development celebrates not only the richness of the world’s cultures but also the essential role of intercultural dialogue in achieving peace and sustainable development (United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organisation, n.d.). However, we still have work to do. Cultural diversity "operates as euphemism for comparison" (Gustafson, 2020, p. 5) between cultural groups. Group identification often fails to acknowledge the individuals that make groups, hence marginalising or suppressing many voices. In teacher education, cultural diversity is most frequently organised in a format where "experts pass on knowledge about their culture" (Angelovska, 2023, p. 34) in a "tourist-based or transmission approach” (Convertino et al., 2016, p. 25). Within the realm of cultural diversity, we need to start seeing cultural individuality as its vital part and engage in conversations where we will explore different perspectives and world views, and build a world for everyone. CULTURAL DIVERSITY HAS TO BECOME THE NORM!
