cultural enrichment
Expanding worldly horizons
Cultural enrichment refers to experiences, programs, or exposure that broaden understanding of arts, traditions, and diverse ways of life: museum visits, language courses, study abroad programs.
The phrase appears in educational and community contexts describing activities meant to deepen appreciation beyond one's native culture.
In some online spaces, "cultural enrichment" has become a sarcastic euphemism for immigrant crime or social disruption—a usage rooted in anti-immigration sentiment.
