In today's interconnected world, language classes are becoming more varied, with students from a variety of cultural and linguistic backgrounds. Embracing multicultural viewpoints in ELT (English Language Teaching) welcomes and promotes diversity, acknowledging the value it adds to language learning contexts. Cultural competence is required for successful communication and collaboration. By incorporating multicultural viewpoints into ELT, instructors can help students acquire not only language abilities but also intercultural competence, preparing them to manage varied cultural situations in their personal and professional lives. The FLLT 2024 conference offers important professional development and networking opportunities for language educators. The conference's focus on global voices and multicultural perspectives allows educators and learners to gain insights, strategies, and resources for incorporating diversity into their teaching and learning practices, ultimately enriching their pedagogical approaches and enhancing voices and experiences in language education.
