The Role of Contemplative Practice in Cultivating Cultural Humility and Inclusivity in Research and Education

Kamilah Majied, PhD
Topics: Compassion & Empathy | Self & Other | Social Change

This presentation discusses contemplative practices as they can be used to help researchers and educators develop prosocial attitudes and behaviors such as cultural humility, discomfort resilience and fierce compassion. In addition to discussing the literature on prosociality and cultural humility, the presenter shares examples from her international research as it relates to the development of these qualities.
