Cultural competence
Cultural competence is a set of knowledge, behaviors, and attitudes that come together in a system with the goal of enabling people to collaborate and communicate productively and effectively with individuals from different cultural backgrounds. These skills promote inclusion and respect in a multicultural learning environment by ensuring that everyone feels comfortable being their authentic selves. They contribute to a harmonious and respectful learning atmosphere and help students succeed in professions where they interact with diverse colleagues and clients, which is essential in an increasingly interconnected global workforce.
The main goal of these exercises is to:
- Develop the cultural awareness and expression competence of individuals.
- Support them in becoming more aware of culture and cultural differences in relation to time management in different cultural contexts.
- Be integrated into their daily lives.
