Nonetheless, a number of issues with exclusion and prejudice are developing in spite of these policies. Addressing these problems and fostering inclusiveness and fraternity are crucial. When a person doesn't feel like they are accepted or a part of the community, alienation can happen, according to both Lam and Balcita.   It is possible to invite people from other backgrounds to take part in regional celebrations of other cultures, such as festivals and culinary fairs.
