Through a systematic literature review, relevant studies are analyzed to develop a competence profile for interculturally professional educators. Key aspects include fostering an open, appreciative attitude toward diversity and recognizing diversity as an opportunity in teaching. The thesis emphasizes the necessity of specific competencies such as cultural sensitivity, problem-solving skills, and professional conflict management. Additionally, it highlights that educators should promote social relationships among learners, create a supportive learning environment, and incorporate cultural content into the curriculum. In conclusion, the importance of continuous professional development for educators is underscored, enabling them to develop and apply intercultural competencies. The thesis calls for a stronger integration of diversity orientation in teacher training to meet the challenges posed by an increasingly diverse student body.
