Abstract:

As British and other Western societies become more culturally and ethnically diverse, the need for cultural competence has never been greater. This involves all settings, including work, politics, home life and personal interactions, such as social gatherings. The idea of cultural competence has emerged as part of a strategy to increase the understanding of differences between cultures and thereby reduce potential disparities.
