Task 1
a) Following the power point presentation by the cultural diversity officer, write a brief report (500 words) which explains the social, cultural and economic benefits of diversity to society.
Social and Cultural benefits of diversity
There are many factors which promote diversity within society which we are going to discuss. Cultural enrichment which tries to encourage everyone to explore different types of food from different ethnic backgrounds, like herbs spices etc. All these foods are available and easy to access in local supermarkets; if we all taste foods from different backgrounds we will be culturally enriched. Another factor which is social cohesion is a difficult concept however can be easily explained by the word ‘Community’. A cohesive community is best understood as an individuals sense of belonging by everyone and there surroundings within the community. Every individual to be able to reach self actualization feels the need by their peers to be valued and respected no matter their ethnic background.
