SUMMARY:Providing Sex Education with Cultural Humility
DESCRIPTION:Do you incorporate reproductive justice in your education? Do you know how to properly use the theory of intersectionality? Are you culturally humble? Many educators are unaware of how culture can influence the way comprehensive sex education is taught by teachers and received by students. Our workshop focus of cultural humility allows educators to develop their ability to build appreciation for the diversity of cultures found inside and outside of their classrooms\, which helps to increase their inclusivity. This training will address the difference between cultural proficiency/competency and cultural humility\, measure one’s own intercultural humility using the Intercultural Development Continuum\, as well as concrete definitions and activities.
