Intercultural Competence of European Youth in the Context of SDGs Goals

Abstract

Intercultural communication competence development is crucial for the successful achievement of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set out in the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. This paper analyzes the strategies of intercultural communication competence development for youth in two regions of China and Europe by reviewing and collecting data. At the same time, a comparative study is conducted on the sustainable development of language and the development of intercultural communication skills. Finally, on the basis of the above analysis, the implications of Europe’s strategic thinking on youth intercultural competence development for language development and youth intercultural competence development in China are discussed in the context of the national situation.
