Nowadays, interconnection in our society is at an unprecedented level. Concepts such as “globalization”, “culture”, and their variants (“pluri-”, “multi-”, and “interculturality”) are essential for understanding the societies’ dynamics and interpersonal relationships, transforming them significantly and shaping a global landscape where information, culture, and economy transcend borders. This article examines these concepts’ relevance in and their presence in educational environments highlighting their contribution to build a more plural and inclusive society. Moreover, we propose a Learning Situation (SdA) that includes an activity aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), “Quality Education” “Reduced Inequalities” fourth and tenth respectively. Our objective is for students of Spanish as a Foreign Language (ELE) and Spanish as a Second Language (LE2) at B1-B2 levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) to identify and assimilate cultural components, one of the most challenging aspects of learning a foreign language. The focus will be on the Spanish-speaking context of Spain, working with specific cultureme.
