The Cultural Lenses workshop is designed to enhance cross-cultural understanding, relationships, and engagement in our community. Participants will be introduced to an analytical framework through which they can explore, recognize, and honor the influence of cultural background on patterns of human behavior. The tools presented foster personal reflection on the impact of culture—our own and others. Rather than exhaustively describing selected cultural groups, this training cultivates knowledge, dialogue, and interaction about culture. Understanding and applying this knowledge—including the communications, actions,values, symbols, heroes, customs, and beliefs of a group—can significantly strengthen individual cultural competence and develop cause-driven leaders.The Cultural Lenses workshop is a key in building a culture of inclusion and to develop a culturally competent community.
