<p>This subject will explore how different cultural understandings and models influence and shape how we interpret the world around us, perceive ourselves and relate to other people. You will build your cultural capability (knowledge, skills and attitudes) in health and community services through self-awareness and reflection on the values, behaviours, beliefs and world views of yourself and others. The subject will be underpinned by the cultural knowledge, lived experience and perspectives of diverse individuals, groups and communities, in particular Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. This understanding will support your ability to engage in respectful relationships, and to make ethical, reflective and culturally-sensitive decisions in diverse professional contexts and environments.</p>

<p>This subject will explore strategies to strengthen the capacity of individuals, families and groups to actively participate, contribute and engage in the health and wellbeing of their communities. This subject will build the knowledge and skills needed to coordinate services, projects and activities that result in improved health and wellbeing and increased &#39;social capital&#39;. Evidence-based models of community development, citizen engagement and participation, health promotion, peer support, networking and activism will be explored and applied through real-world case studies. Particular emphasis will be placed on mitigating the risks and barriers that contribute to poorer health and wellbeing outcomes for vulnerable, marginalised and isolated population groups.</p>
