Do you have concerns about the term ‘CALD’, but can’t quite put your finger on it? Completing this module gives you the chance to unpack why it is problematic, and discuss other terms such as NESB (non-English speaking background), BME (Black and minority ethnic), and POC (person of colour). If left unchecked, the limitations of terminology can unconsciously impact on your practice in ways that are unsafe for ‘CALD’ communities.

Are you someone who trusts numbers and research data as accurately reflecting the objective truth? What caution do you exercise with prevalence data of child sexual abuse across different countries and cultures? Have you ever asked yourself these questions?

Do you think CALD communities are more, less, or equally susceptible to myths about child sexual abuse (such as ‘stranger danger’) compared to Anglo communities? If there are differences, what impact does this have on the mental health outcomes/trajectory of CALD victims/survivors? How do socio-cultural values for ‘female purity’ and ‘male honour’ fit into this complex narrative? Completing this module better places you to deliver informed practice about what is cross-culturally unique and universal, while helping protect the cultural safety of CALD communities.

By the time you get to this module, your head may be spinning. It’s time to take stock, and pull out the key ‘take home messages’. If you forget everything else, what can you not afford to forget? This module also explains why some things were looked at, and other things weren't. Completing this module will help ‘close’ the complex narrative that has been drawn across all the modules, about what constitutes as safe and ethical practice with CALD victims/survivors, their families, and communities. It aims to lift the sophistication of theory, knowledge, and practice, while also understanding that the dialogue will only continue from here.
