I have had a passion for cultural competence and researching the area for over 10 years. I have found that the more I investigate the more I need to know. Researchers in the area of cultural competence are small in number however from my conversations with friends, family and colleagues tell me that many people are interest in the area. In fact, culture shapes who we are and what we believe. Culture competence provides an excellent opportunity to explore this inwardly and then look at its impact outwardly. I hope that this blog will form a community of likeminded people with the opportunity to explore areas of cultural competence.
