Family Violence Program - Aboriginal Cultural Awareness Training
Description
VACSAL has developed considerable expertise in the customisation and delivery of cultural awareness programs. This deep dive workshop delivered by Josh Wanganeen and VACSAL team members will engage and assist participants to develop:
- A knowledge and awareness of one’s cultural identity in relation to colleagues, clients and customers.
- An understanding of the type of languages (written and spoken) that is generated in a particular field and the cultural assumptions and underpinning language.
- The skill to put advice and information into appropriate language for the receiver.
- A knowledge of the different behavioural styles of people from different cultures.
- An attitude of tolerance towards differences.
- An effective cultural awareness training program is a blend of information, self-evaluation and skill formation.
After completing this workshop, participants will be better informed about global and local issues in relation to indigenous culture and more than anything it leaves participants feeling positive about themselves and their capacity to work better and more effectively with others.
Topics Covered:
- Cultural Awareness Perspectives
- White Australia has a Black History
