Description: The National Institutes of Health (NIH) defines cultural humility as "a life-long process of self-reflection and self-critique whereby the individual not only learns about another's culture, but one starts with an examination of [their] own beliefs and cultural identities." In recent years, we have seen a shift in discourse from one of cultural competence to one of cultural humility. However, there is some resistance to this change. Why? How can we embrace the concept in order to make tangible and impactful change? This session will provide participants with the ability to identify barriers to cultural humility, what transformation can occur with this shift in perspective, & behaviors that can be implemented to affect change at the personal, professional, & societal level. The impacts of fragility, silence, & microaggressions will also be addressed.
