Fundamentals of culturally responsive practice

Culturally responsive practice training is a reflective process which helps us gain an insight into how our own cultural perspective impacts on our interactions with others as well as how culture influences other people’s worldview.

Through activities and facilitated conversations we will develop strategies for effective communication, meaningful engagement, and respectful interactions which respond to the unique context of each individual and family.

Learning outcomes

At the end of this workshop participants will be able to: 

• Describe a framework for working in a culturally responsive way
• Reflect on the impact of cultural identities, beliefs and values on everyday interactions
• Identify common ground to work collaboratively
• Implement strategies to manage unconscious bias in the context of power differentials
• Demonstrate an understanding of intersectional disadvantage.  
• Identify strategies that support an inclusive workplace and service provision
