Week 1:Debunking Myths About Culture with Elikem Kunutsor
Welcome to Week 1 of Culture Encounters’ 4-part webinar series, Re-imagining Culture and Cultural Engagement. In this opening session, Elikem Kunutsor helps us unpack the common myths and misconceptions that shape how we think and talk about culture. Are you curious about culture? Do you have questions you have never had space to ask? This conversation is a starting point for developing a curiosity-informed mindset and challenging assumptions that often go unexamined.
Week 2:Cultural Intelligence Meaning-Making with Elikem Kunutsor
Week 2 of Re-imagining Culture and Cultural Engagement continues with Elikem Kunutsor, this time exploring how we make meaning through cultural intelligence. What does it actually look like to interpret the world through a lens of cultural curiosity rather than assumption? This session digs into the thought processes behind cultural intelligence and why meaning-making is central to genuinely engaging across difference.
Week 3:Cultural Intelligence and Practice with Safwat Marzouk
In Week 3 of Culture Encounters’ Re-imagining Culture and Cultural Engagement series, Safwat Marzouk moves us from concept to practice, looking at what cultural intelligence looks like when it is actually lived out. This is a thought-provoking session for anyone ready to move past theory and consider how a curiosity-informed mindset shows up in everyday interactions and decisions.
Week 4: Cultural Engagement with Safwat Marzouk
We close out the series with Week 4, as Safwat Marzouk brings the conversation to cultural engagement itself. Having explored myths, meaning-making, and practice, this final session ties the series together and invites us to consider what it means to genuinely engage with diverse understandings of culture going forward.
