Happy Start of Ramadan!
Cultural awareness involves learning about cultures that are different from your own. But it’s also about being respectful about these differences, It’s about being sensitive to the similarities and differences that can exist between different cultures and using this sensitivity to effectively communicate without prejudice and racism.
As Practitioners, Health Professionals and fellow community members, we celebrate the wide diversity that we have here in the Hawkesbury without judgement.
Becoming more culturally aware is a continual process and it can help to have curiosity, an open mind, a willingness to ask questions, a desire to learn about the differences that exist between cultures, and an openness to becoming conscious of one’s own culturally shaped values, beliefs, perceptions, and biases.
We are one community, diverse, powerful and rich in culture. Lets learn from one another, include and celebrate the good things in each other and the life that walk together.
