Cultural competence

First Nations

The ability to understand, communicate, and effectively interact with people across cultures, particularly in the context of working with Indigenous communities. It involves being aware of one's own cultural worldview, developing positive attitudes towards cultural differences, and gaining knowledge of different cultural practices and worldviews.
