Abstract or Introduction
Nowadays, the world is becoming more globalized, interconnected and heterogeneous. People can no longer interact just with their own type or race, but, on the contrary, must embrace the diversity that surrounds them.
However, as human beings live in groups and act all together as a group, this life style also develops an alternative side of stereotypes, prejudice and discrimination. Stereotypes are related to the cognitive aspect of perception over people, thus defined as beliefs and conceptions on the behavior of different groups.
This paper will evaluate and discuss methods through which an individual person can reduce prejudice and discrimination in society. It will offer theoretical background and empirical evidence, along with certain limitations that restrain the reduction methods.
