In many parts of the world, with populations of multi-ethnic background, prejudice – particularly towards visible minorities – is known to begin in early childhood, between 3 and 6 years of age. There is still debate as to whether programs to reduce prejudice and enhance respect for ethnic differences should be targeted: wheather in middle childhood, when prejudice veers because of the social context, or at an early age, when prejudice is rapidly rising. The paper focuses on the processes of developing prejudice in children and on the theories that shaped interventions, realized in order to reduce prejudice and enhance inclusion in early childhood.

Abstract
In many parts of the world, with populations of multi-ethnic background, prejudice – particularly towards visible minorities – is known to begin in early childhood, between 3 and 6 years of age. There is still debate as to whether programs to reduce prejudice and enhance respect for ethnic differences should be targeted: wheather in middle childhood, when prejudice veers because of the social context, or at an early age, when prejudice is rapidly rising. The paper focuses on the processes of developing prejudice in children and on the theories that shaped interventions, realized in order to reduce prejudice and enhance inclusion in early childhood.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
