What Is Cultural Sensitivity?Cultural sensitivity is an awareness that
there are differences in between cultures. In order to communicate effectively it is a very important skill.
A culturally sensitive person views all people as unique individuals and realizes that their values, experiences, beliefs and language affect their perceptions.

How to improve awareness?Recognizing differences among cultures is
IMPORTANT, but we should also be aware that differences also exist WITHIN cultures.
The assumption that a common culture is shared by all members of a racial, linguistic or religious group is WRONG.
We should also understand that stereotyping prevents us from communicating effectively with people from different cultures.
( Unfortunately we most likely hold some stereotypes about gender and culture )
NEVER show emotions

other cultures?
Are we patient with their attempts to use English?
Do we make assumptions about people based on their race, ethnicity or gender?
Are we doing anything to learn about them?
