Details

This one day workshop has been developed to give participants an understanding of the key theoretical frameworks and to explore our own sociocultural context and its impacts on our work with people from diverse contexts.

We will explore concept like cultural humility, mindful awareness of our responses to differences,  the refugee and settlement  context, and how these can be applied to individuals who have experienced trauma ,and communities in the process of resettlement.

This is an interactive and experiential workshop that may include, peer reflections, discussions and the sharing work and life experiences. 

This workshop is relevant for people working in a range of clinical and non-clinical settings such as counselling, case work, community development, bicultural support, youth work, advocacy and teaching.

Please note: This is not a workshop describing specific cultures and their customs, beliefs, values and mores. Rather it is aimed at providing the tools with which you can understand and bridge cultural differences.
