Appreciation vs Appropriation
Culture connection: DEIB series
As people passionate about international exchange, we love learning about and embracing the cultures we work with. But what is the difference between appreciating a culture and appropriating it? Join members of the DEIB team for a discussion about the differences between cultural appreciation and cultural appropriation, and how we all can continue to grow in our cultural fluency.
