Cultural Humility Training with SMDP
Wednesday, October 27, 2021 6pm to 7pm
About this Event
Global Medical Brigades will be partnering with SMDP to learn about cultural humility through their training, introducing participants to the concept of cultural humility. Cultural humility challenges the notion that one can achieve cultural competency in a short 'diversity training' or with a lifetime of experience. Instead, participants will leave this session understanding the importance of self-reflection, developing diverse partnerships, and addressing power imbalances they encounter.
