CULTURAL SAFETY

CULTURAL SAFETY


About me and you, and you and me. That conversation is about us learning together and how we utilise our space collectively.

These four sessions are discussion points in regards to alternative thought processes in understanding how we as human beings need to be open to alternative interpretations of how we undertstand the world around us.

Sessions

Unaware

If you feel you are unaware, then you may be unconsciously not competent: Individuals or organisations are unaware of how little they know or are unconscious of their level of proficiency. There is no awareness of what cultural safety is or the existence of personal or organisational biases. Assumptions are based on these biases, values, and stereotypes. They are unaware of rehearsal processes that do not acknowledge diversity. Let's create a list together and discuss at least 4 strategies.

Emerging

If you feel you are emerging, then you may be consciously not competent: This stage usually occurs when there has been an ‘a-ha’ or ‘lightbulb’ moment of understanding of the impacts of historical and contemporary policies in producing disadvantage for First Nations people. Individuals and arts organisations may attempt to unlearn unconscious bias, reflect on their own attitudes and values, and seek new knowledge, skills and attitudes relating to First Nations people. Let's create a list together and discuss at least 4 strategies.

Capable

If you feel you are capable, then you may be consciously competent: Individuals and arts organisations commit to using new knowledge and skills to drive change. They actively invest in reviewing, reforming and implementing new knowledge, skills and attitudes into arts practice. They are invested in the learning and reflection process, but these strategies are still not embedded into everyday practice. Let's create a list together and discuss at least 4 strategies.

Proficient

If you feel you are proficient, then you may be unconsciously competent: Finally, the skills or knowledge can be applied without it being consciously thought about. For example, individuals understand and unconsciously know that cultural safety is critical to their skills as a professional arts practitioner. Arts organisations understand First Nations health, wellbeing and safety is a priority, and cultural safety is embedded as a core strategic value. Wellbeing and cultural safety outcomes are measured and reported upon using First Nations values and definitions of success. Let's create a list together and discuss at least 4 strategies.
