INTERCULTURAL COMMUNICATION COMPETENCEشفاء الزهراء
Culture and communication are interrelated. Everything that can be said in one language cannot be translated directly to another due to cultural influences on communication styles. Intercultural communication occurs when people from different cultures communicate and perceive themselves as belonging to different cultures. Understanding each other's cultural communication styles, like levels of formality and emotion, is important for effective intercultural communication.
This document discusses definitions and dimensions of culture from various scholars. It defines culture as shared attitudes, beliefs and values that influence behavior within a group. Key dimensions identified include individualism vs collectivism, power distance, masculinity vs femininity, and long-term orientation. Examples are given of how these dimensions differ across cultures like the US, Western Europe, China, and Japan.
The document discusses the development of intercultural sensitivity and the process of moving from ethnocentric to ethnorelative stages. It defines objective and subjective culture and different levels of culture. Culture shock is introduced as the feeling of disorientation when exposed to an unfamiliar culture. A developmental model of intercultural sensitivity is presented, outlining six stages from denial to integration: denial, defense, and minimization represent the ethnocentric stages where one judges other cultures through their own lens, while acceptance, adaptation, and integration represent the ethnorelative stages where one is comfortable with cultural differences and can shift perspectives.
Cultural diversity and intercultural/crosscultural communication.Peter Stockinger

3) Challenges of intercultural (or“cross-cultural”) communication.
4) Typical and recurrent obstacles that impede a successful intercultural communication.
5) How to improve intercultural communication: the question of cultural awareness.
This document discusses cultural intelligence, including its origin, definition, validity, and facets. Cultural intelligence refers to an individual's ability to adapt to new cultural contexts and can be measured. It has cognitive, motivational, and behavioral components. Developing cultural self-awareness and the ability to suspend judgement are important skills. Cultural intelligence is valuable in an increasingly globalized world with diverse communities.

The document discusses several key concepts related to intercultural communication:
1) Intercultural communication involves interactions between people from distinct cultural backgrounds that can alter the communication event due to different cultural perspectives and symbol systems.
2) Globalization can be viewed anthropologically as worldwide interconnectedness through global movements of resources, goods, labor, finance, information, and diseases.
3) Contextual communication occurs in particular situations or systems that influence what and how we communicate and the meanings we attach to messages. Cultural context, environmental context, occasion, and time are elements associated with the contextual nature of communication.
Icc intercultural communication competencePaola Pierri
This document discusses intercultural communication competence (ICC), which is defined as open and respectful exchange between individuals and groups with different backgrounds based on mutual understanding. ICC involves competence in communication, culture, and identity. It is important for managing diversity in society positively and establishing relations with others from different cultures. Developing ICC helps reduce risks like stereotyping, tension, and intolerance between cultural groups.
Postmodernism argues that identities are fragmented and changeable rather than stable. It claims that people actively create their own identities through their choices in social groups, consumption, and rejecting or adopting labels. Traditional views saw identity as based on fixed factors like class and nationality, but postmodernists, like Stuart Hall, say contemporary identities are fractured with people possessing multiple, contradictory concepts of themselves rather than a single unified identity.
Inter-cultural communication principles guide meaningful and unambiguous information exchange across cultures respectfully. Culture refers to shared systems of symbols, beliefs, attitudes, values, expectations and behaviors among coherent groups, whether within or across states. These principles apply to tourists seeking help, companies merging operations, and politicians negotiating peace. Improved technology and transportation have increased intercultural contact by opening communication without mediation and transporting people outside familiar environments. While some argue globalization reduced diversity, characterizing people as homogeneous markets is simplistic since culture involves many complex factors beyond material aspirations.
This document outlines the objectives and key concepts around intercultural communication from Chapter 12. It discusses how culture affects areas like perception, roles, goals, self-image and language. It contrasts individualism vs collectivism and addresses challenges like stereotypes, culture shock, and ethnocentrism. Finally, it provides tips for becoming a more open communicator and successfully adapting to new cultures through exposure to the host culture.
Culture is the lens through which people view and make sense of the world. It influences communication styles, approaches to conflicts, decision making, and ways of knowing. Communication involves both verbal and non-verbal codes like words, gestures, eye contact and appearance that can be interpreted differently across cultures. Effective cross-cultural communication is important for business, jobs, diversity, and understanding global markets. To improve cross-cultural communication, one should slow down, separate questions, avoid negatives, take turns, clarify meanings, and be mindful of etiquette and humor.
Cross administrative culture and valuesANWARUL WADUD

This document provides an introduction to intercultural communication, covering key concepts such as identity, culture, communication styles, and politeness. It discusses culture as consisting of various levels from surface-level behaviors to underlying values and beliefs. Intercultural communication is defined as communication between individuals from different cultures, where misunderstandings can arise due to differing communication systems.

Intercultural communication has developed into an academic discipline that draws from various fields to study and better understand intercultural interactions.
This document discusses the concept of culture. It defines culture as referring to learned habits and characteristics of social groups rather than individuals or biological traits. Culture affects people's feelings, thoughts and actions in many contexts. While culture is everywhere in how it influences people, it does not have clear boundaries and people belong to multiple cultures simultaneously. The document discusses how culture applies not just to national or ethnic groups, but also professional, city-based, hobby-related and other types of human groups. It cautions against viewing people solely based on a single cultural background.
This document discusses cross-cultural communication and defines key concepts. Culture is defined as a complex whole including knowledge, beliefs, arts, and habits acquired as a member of society. Expanding business operations across borders requires understanding cultural differences and similarities to determine strategy. Culture is learned and shared between generations through various social institutions. Effective cross-cultural interaction requires acculturation and an understanding of high- and low-context cultures and cultural knowledge acquisition. Cross-cultural training can improve understanding through methods like mentoring, area studies, cultural assimilation programs, and field experience.
The document discusses several key concepts related to intercultural communication:
1) Intercultural communication involves interactions between people from distinct cultural backgrounds that can alter the communication event due to different cultural perspectives and symbol systems.
2) Globalization can be viewed anthropologically as worldwide interconnectedness through global movements of resources, goods, labor, finance, information, and diseases.
3) Contextual communication occurs in particular situations or systems that influence what and how we communicate and the meanings we attach to messages. Cultural context, environmental context, occasion, and time are elements associated with the contextual nature of communication.

Cultural Rationality andthe Igbo SocietyQUESTJOURNAL
ABSTRACT:Culture is complex. Each culture is clearly different. This is because of its unique historical evolution. This confers on it qualities that make it peculiar, original and an organic whole. Culture as the entire way of life of a people past and present, has dynamic interplay of factors promoting progress, adaptation and interaction. Global change constantly challenges people to maintain their identity in the face of new conditions. Notwithstanding culture is marked by stable and enduring elements as well as by changing and contingent factors. As a way of life, culture includes art, religion and religiosity, marriage and family, elders and ancestors, egalitarian societal values etc. The Igbo people have a profound religious sense in which the existence of the divine being and the invisible spirit world is natural. This study will examine some components of culture and highlights cultural erosion that affects the esteemed values vis-à-vis global changes. This leads to the trend to jettison original cultural authenticity by its sons and daughters. Hence the urgent challenge to engage the rest of the world within a composite framework situated in a purely African reality in spite of global change.

Reflection On Cultural Awareness
Critical Reflection Essay
Introduction
An individual s culture refers to their personal ideas, customs, and social behaviour. It can be developed from aspects of their lives as well as individual experiences. Once these elements are understood this becomes a person s cultural awareness. Cultural awareness is vital as a foundation of communication and organisation between people of diverse cultures, this then develops into cultural intelligence. Cultural intelligence is understood as a person s capability to not only communicate but work and relate effectively in culturally diverse situations. Cultural self awareness is critically important in developing cultural intelligence this is because one must first understand themselves and their culture before they are able to learn and respect others. Global awareness of diversity has increased vastly with every new generation. This is due to many factors including growth, diversification, organization of cultures and building relationships.
Cultural Awareness
The complete diversity of the people in the world means that everyone we meet has their own culture. A person s culture refers to their ideas, customs, beliefs and their social behaviour. The term cultural awareness is defined as the initial foundation of communication between people of diverse cultures and it involves the ability to stand back from one s self to become aware of their own cultural values, beliefs, behaviours and perceptions. It explains why things are done a certain way, how the world is seen and why people react the way they do. Cultural awareness becomes central when we have to interact with people from other cultures (Quappe Can
This document discusses cultural diversity in the workplace. It defines cultural diversity and notes its importance as recognized by UNESCO. Culture shapes identity in various ways like individualism vs collectivism. In the workplace, cultural diversity promotes innovation through diverse perspectives but also risks misunderstandings if not properly managed with respect and understanding for differences. Examples are given of promoting diversity in the EU and decreasing discrimination in countries like Turkey and Czech Republic. Brief overviews of job markets in Czech Republic and Italy are also provided.
Cultural diversity is the term used to describe many different cultures co-existing within one larger culture. The fact that we can eat so many different types of cuisine in the United States is because people from other countries have immigrated to the US and brought aspects of their own cultures with them. This means that under the umbrella of American culture there are actually many different ethnic traditions being practiced in communities around the country.
As an abstract concept, cultural diversity is actually pretty straightforward; however, finding a concrete definition of culture can be a little bit tricky. This is because the definition of culture can change depending on who's using it and the context in which it's being used. For example, some people use the term to describe the creative arts, like dancing or painting, while others use it in a much broader context to refer to all of the traditions, practices, and belief systems of a particular population of people. For the purposes of this lesson, we are going to look at culture as the latter of these two definitions.

Cultural tourism allows tourists to participate in local cultural activities and festivals, enabling a genuine cultural exchange.

1. Culture comes from the Latin term "cultura" meaning cultivation or agriculture, and refers to a learned system of meanings that help people make sense of the world and their place in it.
2. Culture consists of patterns of traditions, beliefs, values, norms, meanings and symbols that are shared to varying degrees within a community.

1. What is culture?
Read the following descriptions of national values
for China, India, Britain
•What do these descriptions tell us about the nature of
culture?
i.e. what kinds of things do we call ‘culture’?
• How long might it take an outsider to understand these
values?
So what is the nature of culture?
“a complex frame of reference that consists of patterns of traditions,
beliefs, values, norms, symbols, and meanings that are shared to varying
degrees by interacting members of a community”
(Ting-Toomey, 1999, p.10)
traditions rituals, ceremonies, rites of passage
beliefs, values, norms underlying principles governing behaviours
symbols language (verbal, non-verbal) also images
meanings Interpretations of symbols held by members

This document summarizes a training model on sexual violence in universities that was developed by two universities.
The training is divided into multiple sessions that use fictional cases, group discussions, and exercises to: 1) explore how sexual violence manifests and is perceived in university settings, 2) analyze power dynamics and definitions of sexual violence, 3) practice active listening skills, and 4) identify services and strategies for responding to incidents.
Participants analyze cases through an intersectional lens considering gender, sexuality, ability and other factors. Definitions of sexual violence are discussed critically. Role plays help understand disclosure experiences and difficulties in listening without judgment. The training aims to empower individual and institutional responses to sexual violence on campuses.
The Centre MARTA works to combat sexual violence and promote gender equality in Latvian society. It was established in 2000 through cooperation between Swedish and Latvian women's organizations. The Centre provides psychological, social, and legal support to vulnerable women in Latvia. Its mission is the elimination of violence against women and advancement of women's rights. There remains social taboos around sexuality and intimacy in Latvia. The Centre is conducting research and actions to increase awareness of sexual violence prevention through activities like boys' clubs and public discussions. Plans include using the USVreact program in the Latvian context, including gathering student and teacher perspectives to strengthen the Centre's work and potential collaboration with universities.
The document summarizes training programs developed at three UK universities - Sussex, York, and Brunel - to educate staff on responding to and supporting students who have experienced sexual violence. It describes the development and content of the programs, facilitation approaches, and positive responses and impacts, including significant changes in staff understanding and requests for additional sessions. Recommendations include updating policies, procedures, and care pathways to better support victims.
This document summarizes the results of a questionnaire given to students at Turin University in Italy regarding their views on behaviors that could constitute gender violence. 4027 students responded to an initial questionnaire listing various behaviors and indicating which they would define as violence. Their most common selections were someone making you afraid of poor treatment if not cooperating sexually (98%) and someone attempting a romantic relationship despite discouragement (81.6%). Participants in a training program on gender violence then took the same questionnaire before and after the training. After the training, they were more likely to identify more of the behaviors as violent, such as offensive jokes or stories (increase from 23.8% to 55.1% defined as violence).
The document summarizes the experience of providing training on sexual violence at Greek universities. It notes that sexual violence is often not reported due to fears of blame, and there are no formal university frameworks or counseling services to address it. The initial training model involved mixed gender groups to discuss definitions, Greek legislation, and experiences. Feedback was positive, with many students and staff unaware of issues and asking for more training. However, some male participants resisted definitions and struggled to identify subtler forms of violence. Participants felt that ongoing training was needed to fully address problems of sexual violence at universities.
This document discusses training provided to staff at the University of York to respond to disclosures of sexual violence. It provides background on research showing the prevalence of sexual harassment and violence against students in UK higher education. It then details the objectives, delivery, evaluation and impact of the training provided at the University of York to equip staff with knowledge on sexual violence and how to support survivors. The training resulted in improved understanding and institutional changes like a revised policy and new reporting systems.
The document discusses sexual violence against women in Italy and the university context. It provides data showing that 31% of Italian women experience some form of violence in their lifetime. At universities, services exist to help victims, but awareness of these services and the issue of subtle forms of violence is still lacking. The University of Turin aims to improve coordination between support services and offer training to maintain sensitivity around these important issues.
The document discusses the context surrounding efforts to address sexual violence (SV) at the University of the Basque Country. It notes the following:
1) The national legal context in Spain provides a framework focused on gender-based and partner violence but has limitations in addressing all SV situations. Administrative diversity in Spain also creates tensions between different regulations.
2) There is a growing cultural concern about SV that has made it easier to include SV training and issues in the university's protocol revision.
3) At the University of the Basque Country specifically, factors like campus life, the Equality Office, associative presence, university size, and existing protocol are part of the institutional context regarding efforts to address SV.
The document summarizes sexual violence training conducted at Panteion University in Athens. It notes that the university previously had no formal policies against sexual violence, care for victims, or psychological support services. The training involved 80 participants, mostly women, and received positive evaluations. Trainees reported that the mixed cohorts and experiential aspects of the training were helpful. The research team is advocating for wider discussion among Greek universities and inclusion of awareness training in undergraduate programs.
This document discusses changing campus cultures to better support equality and prevent violence. A panel of four professors from Spain, Greece, Italy, and the UK will discuss how to create more open and supportive spaces for survivors on campus. Specifically, they will address issues like how to better apply protocols against sexual harassment, the prevalence of rape myths among university students, obstacles created by focusing on public issues over private ones, and how to enact cultural change in market-driven universities. The panel will consider questions about reducing acceptance of rape myths, examining beliefs among colleagues, refocusing on personal issues, and changing institutional cultures.
The document summarizes research conducted with university students in Turin, Italy to measure their acceptance of rape myths and bystander efficacy in preventing violence. Over 4,000 students completed online questionnaires assessing their agreement with statements reflecting common rape myths organized in four factors - "She asked for it", "He didn't mean to", "It wasn't really rape", and "She lied". Students reported moderate levels of agreement with some myths. A separate scale measured students' confidence in taking actions to prevent violence as bystanders, finding higher efficacy for direct actions versus more ambiguous situations. Correlations showed rape myth acceptance was positively associated with viewing women as responsible for sexual assault. The research aims to understand rape myth sharing and ways to reduce

The document discusses good practices for supporting university students who disclose experiences of sexual violence. It provides recommendations for listening without judgment, helping the student process their thoughts and options, and connecting them to support resources. However, it notes that few students actually report such experiences to universities or support organizations. At the Public University of Navarre in Spain, the Equality Unit and new protocol on harassment aim to establish practices for prevention, but challenges remain in fully implementing and publicizing the protocol. Trained professionals, confidential spaces, coordination, and awareness efforts could help students disclose and receive support.
This document discusses protocols for supporting student disclosure of sexual violence at universities. It notes that having clear protocols can help acknowledge the problem, create more awareness, and provide support structures for victims. However, implementation of protocols often faces challenges, such as slow procedures, lack of real sanctions, and failure to make meaningful changes. Critics argue protocols can homogenize different forms of violence and exclude issues not covered. Overall, the document stresses the need for a broader political approach that goes beyond just institutional frameworks.
