About this Event
When people from all over the world live, study, or work together, misunderstandings are bound to happen.
We all carry our own beliefs, norms, and communication styles — deeply shaped by the cultures we grew up in. But connecting across cultures also brings inspiration, exchange, and diversity.
It can open your eyes to entirely new ways of thinking, being, and seeing the world. In this workshop, you’ll learn more about different cultural norms, how they sometimes clash, and more importantly, how to navigate them with awareness so you can experience the beauty of intercultural exchange.
You’ll also reflect on your own cultural background, share stories, and practise connecting and finding community in diversity, right there in the room. In this interactive and playful workshop, we’ll explore:
- What culture is and how it quietly shapes our values and behaviours
- Where misunderstandings happen — and how to meet them with curiosity
- How we can connect across cultural differences with empathy and awareness
- How sharing stories across cultures can build connection and community
- This workshop is designed to kickstart your connections for the coming year. Come as you are — just bring an open mind and open heart.
Facilitated by Klara Strecker (www.klarastrecker.com) — coach, counsellor and facilitator.I create spaces where people can reflect, connect, and grow.
Having lived, loved, and worked in international environments for over 10 years, this topic is close to my heart. I’ve personally gained so much from being in intercultural environments, and I’m excited to help others find their sense of belonging abroad.
