Anthropologists study human culture and have discovered that some things are universal. For example, we all have certain ways of dealing with family, differentiating good from bad, choosing leaders, and raising children. But other things are not as universal as we may think. Different things in culture affect how we live our lives. For example, in our own culture, we may have different ways to celebrate birthdays, holidays, and other events. But it doesn’t mean that we should ignore them entirely.
First, we must understand how different things are perceived, expressed, and interpreted. A cultural difference includes language, customs, attitudes, and behaviors. Culture is the way of life and traditions that are shared within a society. It is sometimes referred to as ethnicity. People belonging to a particular ethnic group share the same cultural heritage. Every society has a culture, and often its environment determines what kind it is. UNESCO considers culture as the Fourth Pillar of Sustainable Development.
