    diversity of differences different cultural cultures offer of diverse strengthen tolerating the
    cultures expressions groups themselves and difference
    others
    1. Diversity prepares
    students for future
    career success.
    • The workforce is more diverse now than
    any time in history.

    • Diversity fosters competitiveness and


    innovation.

    • Success requires awareness and


    sensitivity towards human differences .
    2. Diversity prepares
    students to work in
    a global society.
    • No matter what profession you enter, you
    will find yourself working with people
    from diverse backgrounds-worldwide.

    • Experiencing diversity in university makes


    the students more comfortable working
    and cooperating with a variety of
    individuals of all nationalities.
    3. Interactions with
    people different
    from ourselves
    increases our
    knowledge base.
    • Research shows that we learn more from
    people that are different for us, rather
    than we do from people who are similar
    to us.

    • People from different backgrounds have


    their own unique sets of information.

    • When they come together and share their


    information, their knowledge base
    becomes wider.
    4. Diversity makes
    us better at solving
    problems.
    • Life brings many problems, and will
    continue to work that way.

    • The more we know the better we will do.

    • Having more sets of knowledge to draw


    from are extremely useful when trying to
    tackle problems of today.
    5. Diversity
    promotes creative
    thinking.
    • Diversity expands your capacity for
    viewing issues from multiple perspectives.

    • Different societies live in different regions


    of the world and they all have different
    environmental factors.

    • If we didn’t have that unique


    understanding of cultures from other
    environments we would not have made
    the advances in medicines and science.
    6. Diversity enhances
    self-awareness.
    • Learning from people whose backgrounds
    differ from your own sharpens your self
    knowledge by allowing you to compare
    and contrast.

    • Being more self-aware allows you to be


    more capable of making informed
    decisions about your academic and
    future.
    How do we
    preserve cultural
    diversity?
    Embracing diversity starts
    with self-awareness

    • There are certainly a few stereotypes imposed to individuals.

    • Cultural messages are deeply ingrained in us, and affects our actions and
    thoughts.

    • People with weaker self-awareness are prone to fall into common stereotypes.

    • Knowledge of self-awareness help you articulate your identity, biases, and


    become more comfortable with diverse perspectives.

    • Self awareness leads you to seek complexity based on diversity.


    Celebrate the differences
    between us.

    • This way, people will be proud of their culture and want to learn more of it.

    • Recognizing the importance of unique cultures will make families eager to pass
    those cultural differences to their future generations.
    Identify and Overcome
    your biases and
    prejudices.

    • Our nature is to surround ourselves with people from the same background,
    and we have a deep need to feel included.

    • Society has also ingrained some racial and cultural biases inside us.

    • We can overcome this bias by doing some critical thinking.

    • Exposing ourselves to other culture will let us identify our own bias early on
    and work on overcoming it to become a more open-minded person.
