OUR WORLD

Cultural Competency World Education Initiative

In OUR WORLD, every course participant has different attributes, intelligences, and is equally influenced by the acquired values, biases, and boundaries that have evolved over time. Humanity hs struggled with self-constructed limitations: tribalism, imperialism, racism, patriarchy, nationalism, and consumerism—to name a few. Today these human constructs can impede or threaten our collective well-being. But Cultural Competency offers us a continuum of actions that when acquired, offers us numerous options to develop the mindsets and skillsets needed to solve our world’s problems. MUSIC, the ARTS, and HUMANITIES, are the creative and motivating windows through which we systematically learn to liberate our human capacities to engage all cultures with equity across our lifespan.

When we prioritize learning on the terms of our World’s diverse cultures—and especially those most under or mis-represented, we build in our children, youth, and young adults, the CAPACITY for service to Humanity, which we refer to as:

Inclusive & Justice-Centered activism

Defined: Placing diverse, equitable, justice-centered and fully inclusive service to the needs of humanity across our lives, in our careers, families, and all socio-community interactions, until the fullest creative capacities of ALL Humanity are realized.
