About this event
- 1 hour
It’s relatively easy for us to experience another culture today. Film, television, and social media keep us connected at all times, giving us a glimpse into how other people around the world live. We have even taken it a step further by inviting cultural celebrations into the workplace. But experiencing another culture doesn’t automatically mean you understand it, so let's learn how to create a sense of belonging and inclusion through our policies, practices, and programs all year long.
