SUMMARY:Navigating cultural differences and ethical dilemmas when working with culturally diverse families
DESCRIPTION:Presenters: Pshko Marden\, Rhett McDonald\, Hala Abdelnour and Amanda Kemperman \nPartner: Emerging Minds \nMany practitioners strive to support all families in ways that are culturally appropriate and sensitive. However\, when practitioners work with children and families from a different culture than their own\, they may receive questions or hear experiences that differ from the norms\, knowledge or expectations of their own culture. In these situations\, practitioners may feel uncertain about how to navigate these cultural differences. \nEthical dilemmas can arise when practitioners’ own values or opinions around equity\, fairness or parenting practices differ from those of the family they’re working with. For example\, differences around the expected responsibilities appropriate for a child to take on. \nPractitioners may feel uncertain about how to best support the mental health and wellbeing of the child and their family while maintaining cultural respect\, humility and curiosity. Through self-reflection and improved cultural awareness\, practitioners can avoid unintentionally imposing their own beliefs and expectations on families. This can reduce the risk of the child and their family feeling misunderstood or isolated from services. \nThis webinar will help you: \n\nmaintain humility and curiosity when cultural differences and ethical dilemmas arise in your work\nnavigate conversations with children and families from cultures that are different from your own\, particularly when cultural differences arise\, so that you can maintain culturally sensitive practice\nreflect on and challenge your own assumptions\, judgements and biases when ethical dilemmas arise due to cultural differences.\n\nThis webinar will interest practitioners who work in the child and family sector – such as psychologists\, psychotherapists\, counsellors\, nurses\, teachers and support workers – who want to develop their confidence and cultural humility when working with culturally diverse children\, parents\, families and communities. \nThis webinar is co-produced by CFCA at AIFS and Emerging Minds in a series focusing on children’s mental health. They are working together as part of the Emerging Minds: National Workforce Centre for Child Mental Health\, which is funded by the Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care under the National Support for Child and Youth Mental Health Program \nREGISTER
