Navigating Culture and Bias Workshop
We’re pleased to present our Navigating Culture and Bias workshop. This workshop is a highly interactive and challenging training that provides teams with an opportunity to unpack the layers of culture, privilege, and power while identifying how these concepts create opportunities to work effectively with immigrants and refugees. The workshop also aims to create a safe space for organizations and institutions to examine their own personal ideas and biases while learning tools to implement cultural humility practices when working with a diverse and multicultural community.
