About this Event
This workshop is based upon the concept of Cultural Humility and it's principles developed by Dr. Melanie Tervalon and Dr. Jann Murray-Garcia. Day one focuses on providing essential concepts and practices that encourage a safe respectful space. Day two will focus upon understanding and practicing the principles of cultural humility through small groups with dialogue.
Dr. Jann Murray-García has led community-based education and cultural understanding at the Betty Irene Moore School of Nursing since its launch in 2010 and asserts that individuals and institutions must look for their hidden scripts to avoid unknowingly or unintentionally causing harm with discrimination. That those scripts are the cultural identities, family experiences, traumas, intersecting histories, and languages that shape interactions, inform values and influence policies. She professes that scripts can be interrupted by using Cultural Humility.
