Cultural Humility in the Classroom

Course Number
CS05: 04_EN
Overview
This workshop moves past traditional cultural competence to explore cultural humility—a lifelong commitment to self-reflection and learning that fosters genuine, respectful partnerships with individuals from diverse backgrounds. Participants will engage in self-examination of their own biases, understand how power and privilege shape interactions, and develop practical strategies to build trust and reduce inequities in their daily work with children and youth.

  • Develop skills in active listening and asking respectful questions.
  • Recognize how power imbalances affect relationships and outcomes.
  • Learn strategies for culturally responsive communication and co-creation of ideas and solutions.
