Guide and action plan for cultural training for professionals
This guide and action plan is designed to support professionals working with migrants in developing their cultural competencies. It provides tools and insights to help professionals create their own action plans for cultural competency training, incorporating national resources in the language of each partner participating in the PIPE project.
The guide offers a concise theoretical framework that introduces professionals to the concept of cultural competence. It includes a progressive, level-based itinerary, allowing each professional or organization to decide based on their experience and needs—whether to follow the entire path or focus on specific levels. Inspired by Cortázar’s novel Rayuela (Hopscotch), professionals can choose their own journey through the guide’s content.
The guide analyzes the barriers and challenges faced in implementing cultural competence training in the field of interculturality, a series of reflections on the concept of identity and heritage and the need to direct our efforts towards the collective and progressive construction of an hospitality culture. The guide defines the learning objectives and a decalogue of good practices to generate dialogue and community reflection on what one should consider when designing the own training plan.
This is the short version of the Action plan and guide in German/Italian/Greek/Danish, which includes the section with German/Italian/Greek/Danish resources for the cultural training of professionals working with migrants. It will serve as a practical reference for designing their own action plans for training in cultural competencies. The full version of the Guide and Action Plan in English is available here.
