DESCRIPTION:“Cross-Cultural Conversations” \n*********** \nJoin us for active conversations with students from Eikei University in Hiroshima, Japan. The sessions will be 90 minutes that will be an interactive presentation by a scholar in the field on the topic listed, and then followed by structured conversations in English with students in Japan. Developing cross-cultural understanding assists in becoming more culturally aware. This can be a continual process and it can help to have curiosity, an open mind, a willingness to ask questions, a desire to learn about the differences that exist between cultures, and an openness to becoming conscious of one’s own culturally shaped values, beliefs, perceptions, and biases.\n*********** \n"#MySDGDream: Sustainable Development Goals and Me" with Zephanii Smith Eisenstat *********** Monday, February 12,  2:30 pm - 4 pm HST *********** via Zoom.
