Facilitate Cultural Safety

Building cultural capacity

Course Duration: ONE DAY
Cultural identity can have a profound impact on our perspectives and service needs. The ability to facilitate the cultural security of others is a crucial skill for anyone working with diverse people, especially in health, community or education sectors.

Beyond ‘cultural awareness’, this unique course is the first step to developing a safe, nurturing and positive environment in which people feel comfortable and supported to be themselves and express their culture and belief systems.

This practical and revealing course looks at the spectrum of cultural capacities:  Cultural awareness > cultural sensitivity > cultural competence > cultural safety

TOPICS INCLUDE:

  • Accessing culturally-specific information
  • Links between culture and wellbeing
  • Ethno-centrism and bracketing
  • Culturally-tailoring existing services
  • Recognising strengths and celebrating diversity
  • Legislative requirements and substantive equality
  • Recognising unconscious bias and systemic discrimination

This course includes

  • Engaging, up-to-date materials.
  • Take-home reference package and free online resources.
  • All day catering and beverages - with dietary needs catered for.
  • Post-course contacts for help and advice.
  • Certificate of attendance.
