Cultural Humility

The third webinar in our After Lunch Course Series for 2022, coordinated by the 7 Regional Library Systems and State Library of Kansas, is open for registration.  In this 60-minute webinar, library employees will learn about cultural humility as an approach framework to EDI (equity, diversity, inclusion) in libraries. Take part in this webinar to define cultural humility and learn strategies to apply it to the library’s work. Participate in this webinar to raise your awareness of cultural humility as a practice with the potential to meaningfully engage in lifelong learning and community connections.
