Really research our culture
My advice for them [university staff who work with SV/SA policies] would be to really do their research about our culture, that is, from Latin America, so they won’t make accusations or assumptions and stereotypes, and so they can make us feel comfortable and safe and calm.
Facilitator: Yeah that’s good, but be open-minded again, and there’s a lot of cultures so, they have to be like open-minded, and not only to be about some like, major key points in each culture.
