Summary

  • Becoming culturally competent is not simply knowing about another person's
  • culture. It is understanding how cultural differences impact the consulting

relationship and being able to adjust your behavior to accommodate these differences for effective interaction.

individual within the context of the cultural beliefs, behaviors, and needs presented by patients and their communities.

CC & Day‐to‐day Social Interaction

  • Every aid worker-refugee interaction involves an interaction of cultures no matter how

similar the refugee and aid worker appear on the surface

  • Safe and effective interpersonal communication is based on an exchange of familiar

social and cultural cues

  • Interacting with people from different cultures can be unsettling for the aid worker and

this can cause reactions which may not be helpful

  • Cultural competence encourages openness and respect to people’s unique needs and

realities
