A Planner’s Guide … Infusing Principles, Content and Themes Related to Cultural and Linguistic Competence into Meetings and Conferences
This resource, developed by the National Center for Cultural Competence at Georgetown University, provides comprehensive guidance for meeting and conference planners seeking to integrate cultural and linguistic competence throughout their events. The guide emphasizes that cultural competence should not be compartmentalized, but rather infused into all sessions regardless of the overall health care topic. The resource includes innovative examples and provides detailed checklists, sample evaluation questions, and extensive resource lists to help planners create inclusive environments that honor diverse learning preferences and demonstrate respect for participants’ cultural heritage and needs.
