Cultural Dictionary and Directory The Cultural Dictionary and Directory Of people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds A resource to increase cultural understanding for service providers and encourage liaison between communities and key multicultural providers in the ACT A project of the Migrant and Refugee Settlement Services of the ACT Inc. With the support of the ACT Office of Multicultural, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Affairs (Community Service Directory – ACT Government) Original publication by Sara Khalidi 1997 Revised and Edited by Fiona McIlroy 2003 Revised and Edited by Hannah Neumayer 2012 Cultural Dictionary & Directory 2012 - Project of the Migrant and Refugee Settlement Services of the ACT Inc. 1 PREFACE TO THE CULTURAL DICTIONARY The wealth of cultural diversity in Australia is arguably one of its major assets. Acknowledgement of difference and acceptance of each person’s unique qualities, as well as their particular blend of cultural influences can assist people to grow in cultural richness and social strength. However more often than not, perceptions and attitudes are based on the limited understandings we currently hold, and we are all prone to prejudice. The key to cultural understanding lies in an open mind. Given the rise in expressions of racist attitudes in recent times, it is more important than ever to remember that general statements about cultural backgrounds can lead to stereotyping. Stereotyping often undervalues individuals and cultures, and can be based on mistaken assumptions. It must be noted that the brief and general descriptions of a culture or country, such as the snapshots in this Cultural Dictionary, should never be applied in a blanket way to any individual or group. Such descriptions given can never account for the diversity of individuals and groups within any culture or country. Factors such as age, education, socio-economic class, religion, gender and personal experience shaping the individual cultural identity has a bearing upon a person’s values and behaviour. Because of this, the Dictionary can only be the first step towards understanding. When in doubt, ask the person for their point of view, needs and preferences. While we each receive basic cultural conditioning from the environment we grew up in, every culture, ethnic group and country is continually undergoing change and within each one there are many variants. It is therefore advisable to learn about each culture from as many individuals as possible to gain a more balanced concept of their needs and strengths. Conversations, listening and the building of trusting relationships with people from diverse and linguistic backgrounds are the next important steps toward developing further knowledge and sensitivity. We cannot know all there is to know about another person’s culture, but we can extend them respect and interest. Hopefully, the information collected in the Cultural Dictionary will stimulate your interest, and encourage you to think further than bound borders of countries.

  • Lunchbox Ideas
    You all wanted it, and I am here to deliver. I have done some research on lunchbox ideas and have come up with the following suggestions that should keep your child’s lunch exciting for the remainder of the school year! Full menu’s are included, as well as “mix and match” ideas. The lunchbox: It is important to have the right gear and the lunchbox is an important asset. Consider letting your child pick out his own lunchbox or purchase one and let him decorate it with paint or markers. Make sure your child's name is on it with a permanent marker or paint. Most schools will not provide a refrigerator to store lunchboxes, so you should select an insulated one with a re‐usable freezer pack to keep the lunch fresh. Or, instead of using a freezer pack, you can freeze a bottle of water, and add it to the lunch box. It will keep the lunch cold and fresh during morning classes and by lunch time it will have thawed and be ready to drink. More gear ­ containers: Those gimmicky, salt, fat and sugar‐filled, "Lunchables" trays are very popular with kids. Not because they taste so good, but because look so cool. There is no reason a homemade lunch needs to look dull and unappetizing. Buy colorful containers in different shapes to pack your child's lunch. They are better than plastic bags and less wasteful too. If your child is drawn to characters, buy some stickers and decorate the containers. Put your child's name on the containers, but it is inevitable that some containers may not make their way home.

  • A Synopsis of the Information Shared by Students at Sharing Our Cultures 2019 Cameroon – Clothing, Dance, and Music Milka
    A synopsis of the information shared by students at Sharing Our Cultures 2019 Students are sharing their own cultures and not necessarily the official culture of their country. Choose 5 words from each culture that are unfamiliar to you and find out more about them. Write about your culture, choose how you want to present your information and share it with others. Cameroon – Clothing, Dance, and Music Milka Measho, Jessica Mutoba, Gloria Mwadi, Arlette Nelemang Cameroon cloths (fabrics) are often made in factories with wax prints and designs printed on them. They are sold in markets and stores to individuals who get the cloths sewn into a design of their choice. Traditional attires vary greatly from one region to the other, and are defined by religion, tribal heritage, climate, customs, and beliefs. Kabba, Boubou, Foulard, Gant, Chechia, Kwa, and Gandura are some types of clothing worn by both men and women. Dance plays a major role in Cameroon, which has more than 200 traditional dances. Each dance is associated with a different event or ceremony. Some popular dances are: Bikutsi is a rhythmic style which originated with the present day Beti people. Bikutsi means “thump the earth” because dancers use their feet to stamp down the ground in a rhythmic pattern. Makossa is a noted popular Cameroonian urban musical style. It uses strong elastic bass rhymes and prominent brass. The meaning is “I dance” in the Douala language. Instruments used are Xylophone, drums, balafon, tambourines, bass, horns castanets, tom-toms, and jingle calabashes.

Serving the Church in Central and Southern Indiana Since 1960 CriterionOnline.com January 18, 2013 Vol. LIII, No. 14 75¢ Partnerships, sustainability are key Hughes Submitted photo/Kent in Haiti’s earthquake recovery WASHINGTON (CNS)—Soon after a monstrous earthquake devastated much of Haiti three years ago, the mantra among Haitian government leaders and a good share of relief and development agencies was “build back Haiti better.” It was somewhat catchy, of course, and certainly demonstrative of the resiliency of a country battered all too often by Mother Nature. As the Jan. 12 anniversary of the quake came and went, the “build back” slogan has faded from most discussions, but the work of rebuilding—in reality, building—a country has moved ahead even if progress has been slow and difficult to measure.

  • Chinese Bird-And-Flower Wallpaper from Painting to Decorative Arts
    CHINESE BIRD-AND-FLOWER WALLPAPER FROM PAINTING TO DECORATIVE ARTS A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Yixin Xu December 2020 © 2020 Yixin Xu ABSTRACT This thesis investigates what remains of the Chinese bird-and-flower wallpaper export in Britain today in an attempt to answer the long-existing question of how these wallpapers, as one of the most successful and unique global products in the 18th century, have changed from a type of oriental painting to a Western interior decoration style. Apart from the summary and literature review, this thesis is divided into six parts. The first part introduces the “Chinoiserie” trend popular in Britain in the 18th century and how bird-and-flower wallpapers entered the UK market, while the second part traces the oriental source of inspiration of the Chinese bird-and-flower wallpaper export, known as Chinese bird-and-flower painting. The third part investigates how the emerging assembly line painting workshop in Canton, China, where most export wallpapers were produced, promoted the birth of this unprecedented global commodity, and the fourth part analyzes the impact of the enthusiasm for oriental plants in Britain on the market demand for Chinese bird-and-flower wallpapers and discusses the relationship between bird-and-flower wallpapers and the export of botanical paintings. The fifth part examines how Chinese painters created large decorative art based on traditional art under the influence of Western customers from the perspective of artistic style, proving that both Chinese producers and Western consumers contributed to the birth of bird-and- flower wallpapers.
