- Cultural sensitivity training
Knox is a diverse community. Understanding the values and cultures of other people is key to an inclusive, safe and healthy municipality.
Increasing our awareness of what other people value allows us to develop clubs, services and groups that are responsive to everyone’s needs and ultimately increase participation and membership!
This session will help you:
- Increase your awareness of different cultures and communication practices
- Learn about the challenges and barriers for culturally diverse community members to join services, groups and clubs
This session will be run by staff from the Migrant Information Centre in East Melbourne.
