Intercultural Workshop #4 – Challenging Cultural Assumptions and Bias

Classrooms, workplaces, and communities are made up of people with diverse and complex cultural backgrounds. To navigate these intercultural environments, Intercultural Competence is the ability that helps us to interact effectively and appropriately with people from diverse cultural backgrounds. By developing our intercultural competence, we foster our ability to recognize, acknowledge, respect, and incorporate an understanding of worldviews and their impact on relationships. 

This final workshop in the Intercultural Competence series will continue to build the skills of intercultural competence by focusing on the concepts of bias and blind spots, microaggressions, and privilege. Additionally, participants will develop strategies for intercultural sensitivity to be able to experience and appreciate cultural differences.

All on-campus participants will be provided snacks and beverages, along with a chance to win a door prize! Register today for your chance to win!
