Virtual Instructor-led Training
Applying a Cultural Humility & Responsive Lens to Facilitation (ILT)
This training is designed to provide a foundation on how to incorporate practices into your facilitation that will recognize and uplift young people’s cultural uniqueness in a learning environment. Training participants will explore the essential role culture plays in our lives, reflect on how culture influences how we interact with each other, and the impact culture has on our decision making. We will delve into the Theory of Intersectionality and the importance of recognizing and applying it when working with young people. We will explore how to make lessons more culturally responsive and how to respond when you (the facilitator) or a leaner commit a microaggression.
