Piloted around the world by UNESCO, this methodology has proven to be effective in a range of different contexts and focused on a variety of different issues. It therefore can be considered an important resource for anyone concerned with effectively managing the growing cultural diversity within our societies to ensure inclusive and sustainable development. Intercultural competence refers to the skills, attitudes and behaviours needed to improve interactions across difference, whether within a society (differences due to age, gender, religion, socio-economic status, political affiliation, ethnicity, and so on) or across borders. The book serves as a tool to develop those competences, presenting an innovative adaptation of what could be considered an ancient tradition of storytelling found in many cultures. Through engaging in the methodology, participants develop key elements of intercultural competence including greater self-awareness, openness, respect, reflexivity, empathy, increased awareness of others, and in the end, greater cultural humility. This book will be of great interest to intercultural trainers, policymakers, development practitioners, educators, community organizers, civil society leaders, university lecturers and students -- all who are interested in developing intercultural competence as a means to understand and appreciate difference, develop relationships with those across difference, engage in intercultural dialogue and bridge societal divides"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aIntercultural communication$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 606 $aCultural competence$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 606 $aStorytelling$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 606 $aCultural relations$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 606 $aBUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Development / Sustainable Development$2bisacsh 606 $aEDUCATION / Comparative$2bisacsh 606 $aNATURE / Ecology$2bisacsh 615 0$aIntercultural communication 615 0$aCultural competence 615 0$aStorytelling 615 0$aCultural relations 615 7$aBUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Development / Sustainable Development 615 7$aEDUCATION / Comparative 615 7$aNATURE / Ecology 676 $a303.48/2 700 $aDeardorff$b Darla K.$0876982 712 02$aUnesco, 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910737281003321 996 $aThe UNESCO manual for developing intercultural competencies$93553283 997 $aUNINA
