Introducing

The Sankofi Cultural IQ Framework ©

  • Language Matching

    We ensure that the linguistics, terminology, and semantics included within our services align with your served community.

  • Cultural Humility

    We continuously self-reflect and learn of the different cultural beliefs, attitudes, and ideologies of your served community to enhance connection between your institution and your community.

  • Cultural Conceptualization

    We strive to incorporate the perspective of your served community into our services, utilizing engaging techniques. We also utilize services which are culturally acceptable by your community.

  • Social Consciousness

    Sociological determinants of your served community, such as psychological, environmental, and historical influences are considered throughout our work. Changing circumstances, such as social support, economic conditions, and overall stress load of your community are assessed.

  • Sustainable Equity

    We create and refine health interventions while having health equity as a central component and not as an auxiliary tenet. We engage key interested parties into our equity work for an everlasting impact.

Utilizing Sankofi’s extensive research upon cultural intelligence in health care settings, we have devised a cultural framework fully integrated within our services
