Cultural Humility: A Brief Overview
Cultural humility is an approach to intercultural interactions that emphasizes ongoing self-reflection and self-critique in understanding and engaging with cultural differences. Unlike cultural competence, which often focuses on acquiring specific knowledge about other cultures, cultural humility prioritizes an attitude of openness and lifelong learning. It involves recognizing and addressing one's own biases and acknowledging that no one can fully master another culture.
