Beyond Borders for Cultural Competency: Discovering Nigeria
Event box
Beyond Borders is a dynamic, curiosity driven cultural competency course designed to take participants on a journey across vibrant cultures from around the world. Each month, we’ll discover a new cultural landscape—exploring its traditions, values, stories, rituals, and ways of communicating that shape how people live, connect, and belong.
This month we will be exploring Nigeria, the most populous country on the continent of Africa. This effort will be led by Dr. Ademola Adesola, Yemi Adeyemi, Dr. Michael Uzoka, and Vivienne Momoh. The session will privilege attention to Nigerian history/culture/ influence within the sub-Saharan context, among other vital issues. There will also be an interactive session, which will include Nigerian food, music, and arts. Participants will go away with a better awareness of the uniqueness of Nigeria and what it means, in part, to be a Nigerian.
