What is cultural impact?

Culture refers to characteristic patterns of attitudes, values, beliefs, and behaviours shared by members of society or population… Cultural differences will affect the receptivity of a individual to individual education and willingness to accept information and incorporate it into his or her lifestyles.

Loosely defined, culture refers to the shared values, beliefs and norms of a specific group of people. Culture, therefore, influences the manner we learn, live and behave. Because of this, many theorists believe that culture is an important shaper of our personality.

We want culture and cultural curation to be a strong part of all young peoples’ lives. It influences their views, their humour, their hopes, their loyalties, and their worries and fears. Therefore, at every possible opportunity, we at The Preville Consultancy, work with you to build relationships with young people that provide them with representation and perspective, encouraging agency for legacy and understanding of their diverse cultures and impact within society.
