b. develop cultural competence
c. believe in multiple perspectives
d. all of the above

B. Develop cultural competence

Explanation:

In order for one to avoid cultural misunderstanding, he must develop cultural competence. The more information and knowledge an individual will gather regarding different cultures, the more he will be exposed to them. It will help him cross analyse the different cultures and eventually get rid of any misunderstanding that might be created due to external sources.

More knowledge means a better and more adequate perspective to adapt and accept the different cultures and their historical backgrounds.
