Seeing i2i: Adventures in Diversity and Cultural Awareness is a new 4-H curriculum intended to help youth gain ‘global competence’ and ‘cultural competence’ skills needed in today’s increasingly interconnected world and culturally diverse communities.

Curriculum content centers around five areas, namely:

• Applying knowledge including advocating for others
• Self-reflection and exploring one’s own heritage, culture, and cultural lens 
• Gaining cultural knowledge and gaining an appreciation for increased cultural awareness 
• Culturally competent attitudes and beliefs 
• Culturally relevant skills and behaviors (e.g., empathy, perspective-taking) 

Audience: Designed for youth in grades 6-8, but can be adapted for younger and older age groups

Note: We recommend activities 1.1 – 3.2 and 4.3 – 4.4 for a trauma-informed approach to these topics.
