Mission:
The
iCross-Cultural Citizen Project is a cultural anthropology course-based
project
meant to raise critical consciousness about the rich cultural diversity in our
indigenous
world. Being totally aware of the limitations of being outsiders, we are a
group
of multidisciplinary undergraduate students who believe in cross-cultural
sensitivity
and participatory agency aimed at disseminating information about
indigenous
realities as accurately as possible.
Vision:
The
iCross-Cultural Citizen Project’s vision is to create an online cross-cultural
space
for students, professionals, and youth to learn and exchange cross-culturally
sensitive
information about contemporary indigenous experiences. From that outsider
student’s
perspective, we will try to theoretically explore possible collaborative
solutions to problems that affect the indigenous populations of our planet.
Finally, we hope for the future creation of a space where indigenous youth can
share their experiences and their realities with us for real mutual
collaboration to take place.
Values:
- We value the maximization of benefits to indigenous
peoples and other vulnerable populations in the world.
- We value the respect for persons all over the world.
- We value the equal treatment of people, and we are against
the exploitation of vulnerable groups around the world.
- We value collaborative cross-cultural learning and
critical thinking.
