Understanding Diversity and Social Justice
Thursday, December 11, 2008
Facilitated by Moira Delgado and Vickie Gomez
This workshop provides the foundation for understanding various concepts of diversity work by offering a format for exploring topics of social justice, privilege and power. Through personal sharing, group exercises, and dialogue, the ever persistent and ever changing dynamics of personal and societal structures which support inequality will be examined. Participants will also engage in learning skills to become allies for social equity.
Part of the Cross-Cultural Competence Certificate Series
Cultural competence is defined as a set of behaviors, attitudes, and policies that help organizations and staff work effectively with people of different cultures. This series explores the rich dynamics of cross cultural interactions and provides participants with knowledge and skill to increase their effectiveness in relating across cultural differences. Those who complete five of the workshops in the series will receive a certificate of participation. For more information, contact Karen Roth at (530) 752-2071 or kmroth@ucdavis.edu
