The concept of cultural diversity has gained prominence in public policies, institutions, and discourses around coexistence, inclusion, and representation. However, what exactly do we mean by cultural diversity? To what extent are the frameworks and categories we use to define it valid or sufficient? What are the implications of continuing to reproduce this paradigm? This roundtable debate proposes a critical and open reflection on the limits, tensions, and possibilities of diversity as a category, and the urgency of moving towards broader and more complex concepts that do not merely sum “different” identities under a single framework, but allow us to rethink modes of recognition, participation, and coexistence from a genuinely inclusive, critical, and situated perspective.
