I learned so much and met a lot of new people, who I know call friends through taking this CQ Badge. My favourite part of the experience was having a safe space to have different discussions where every one's opinions/ perspectives were heard during the workshops. This badge was life-changing for me both personally and professionally.

I learned to adapt myself in advance to the skills of getting along with people of different cultures and become aware of some sensitive issues. It'll help me make friends more easily in the future.

CQ helped me have meaningful connections with people from diverse backgrounds. I not only learned about their cultures but also forged genuine friendships. Hearing their stories and perspectives provided insights that I might not have encountered otherwise. I also gained a deeper appreciation for the complexities of multiculturalism
