Cultural Awareness

This cultural awareness seminar is designed to explore elements of culture with the aim of providing a foundation for the development of cultural competence. This 1-hour seminar will define culture and present models which will aide participants in their work with people from different cultural backgrounds than their own. There will be an opportunity to explore one’s own cultural identity as this is said to be critical to the achievement of comfort with the cultural identity of others

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the components which comprise “culture” and “identity” and how these may be used to promote more effective interventions

• Identify how issues, problems and concerns which may arise when working across cultures might be addressed

• Recognise their role in acknowledging personal beliefs, cultural differences and boundaries

• Define their own culture and the impact of self on practice situations

The seminar will be available for all Glenveagh employees to watch from today and will remain available for 30 days.
