In a world where individuals are increasingly mobile, how people originating from different cultures live together is one of the key issues of the 21st century. There is a growing need for new thinking on how diverse communities can live together in productive harmony and not in parallel and separate lives. Policy is often dominated by mitigating the perceived negative effects of diversity (complexity, loss of cohesion, exploitation and racism) but little thought has been given to how a diversity dividend or increased innovative capacity might be achieved.
