TRAINING DETAILS:
We know you don’t want to be biased, and we know that living in the world exposes everyone to negative stereotypes, which can lead to internalized, unintentional “unconscious bias.” This workshop is designed to provide terminology, a shared framework, and immediately implementable strategies to reduce personal bias and interrupt moments of bias. Participants can expect culturally relevant real-life examples that resonate with their lived experiences and current reality.
Sabemos que no quiere ser prejuicioso y sabemos que vivir en el mundo nos expone a todos a estereotipos negativos, que pueden conducir a un ” prejuicio inconsciente” interiorizado y no intencionado. Este taller está diseñado para ofrecer terminología, un marco compartido y estrategias de aplicación inmediata para reducir el sesgo personal e interrumpir los momentos de prejuicio. Los participantes podrán escuchar ejemplos de la vida real culturalmente apropiados que se ajusten a sus experiencias vividas y a su realidad actual.
