An Indigenous Cultural Competency Pilot Activity
University: The University of Newcastle
Project Leader: Ms Leanne Holt, The Wollotuka Institute
Project Summary: Building on the University of Newcastle's long history of cultural competency initiatives in health and other fields, the Cultural Competency Model will provide a framework through which resources can be developed and rolled out widely across the university. The project will pilot embedding of cultural competency in the Faculty of Business and Law curriculum, promote the value of culturally competent graduates to the business community and introduce standards for acknowledgement as a `Recognised Employer in Indigenous Collaboration'. Deliverables will include a CD-ROM, website and a business package to help promote cultural competency as a graduate attribute for the workplace.
