Social reality is always in the process of changing. Globalisation has made these changes more abrupt with a more powerful impact. Migrations break one equilibrium and then create another. As a result, social reality is constantly facing new challenges. With ever-increasing immigration, social reality does not have time to settle an equilibrium that has to cope with significant changes. These situations can lead to social unrest. Both social innovations and intercultural education are constructive responses to these challenges. The manuscript aims to analyse how intercultural education and social innovation can be an opportunity to contribute to making societies more sustainable and cohesive.
