Cultural Competency Te Tiriti O Waitangi Workshop
Course details
About the course
This course is for anyone who would like to develop their cultural competency, their confidence, and understanding of Te Reo and the Titiri o Waitangi. This could be for personal development or to help empower effective engagement within the workplace.
Cultural competency is the ability to work and live with people from any ethnic or cultural background by understanding the value of who you are and where you come from first.
Cultural competency training achieves this by developing your basic understandings of Te Reo me ona Tikanga (Māori language and protocols) and Te Ao Māori (Māori ways of life). Cultural competency is a universal skill and ability that can be applied in any professional or personal life situation.
Cultural competency empowers individuals, groups, and teams with an ability to engage effectively not only with Māori people but with people from any ethnicity including their own. It is the ability to be respectful and responsive to the beliefs, practices cultural and ethnic needs of diverse population groups.
