Cultural Awareness and Diversity
Variety is the Spice of Life
The world is becoming a smaller place by the minute. The Internet, fast airplanes, high-tech, low-cost international communication and a global economy make it possible for people to move from their home country to other places, where they expect to be safe, financially stable and happy. However, growing up within a culture molds that culture into our character, our beliefs and our attitude. Much of what we know only makes sense within the context of our own language and our own environment. Therefore, moving from one culture to another is harder than most people expect it to be, and this includes both the migrants and the people in their new country. The presentations in this area give participants a good understanding of issues related to migration and provides some excellent (and quite simple) ways to overcome them.
