At the end of this course, students are able to:
- Analyze and describe for a case study which aspects of care practices (e.g., perceptions of problem behaviours, disabilities and treatments, kinds of problems, ways of seeking help, treatment needs, communication styles) are influenced in which way by cultural, religious, gender, sexual and social class diversities (5)
- Analyze and describe various ways in which care professionals and policy makers can handle diversities in specific clinical, educational or policy settings (3, 5)
- Ethically reflect on and analyze how their own background influences their position as care professionals in various settings and which differences may occur between personal, professional, cultural and universal values. (4, 9)
- Independently set up and write a small literature review on how diversities matter for a specific pedagogical practice (6, 7, 8)

In this course, you will get group and individual assignments in which you will experience how diversities matter in (mental) health care. In addition, you will reflect on how your personal context influences your professional values and you will learn to analyze and deal with situations in which personal, professional, cultural and universal values differ. For some of these themes, you will make an assignment based on a case study. In most cases, you may choose an assignment based on your own clinical, educational or policy interest and on a target groups of your interest.
