Over the last two decades the world has witnessed an important transformation of the concept of citizenship and social integration, increasingly recognizing that cultural and ethnic diversity need to be considered when designing and implementing social policies. The increasing cultural diversity of societies, along with the important role culture plays in forming identities in these societies, creates major challenges for national and local governments in ensuring social cohesion and social inclusion. 'Delivering Services in Multicultural Societies' reviews recent approaches to recognizing cultural diversity when delivering basic services. It first discusses how supporting cultural diversity can help achieve social inclusion and social cohesion. It then considers the debate over multiculturalism from various perspectives and discusses the risks and benefits of policies that support cultural diversity. Also examined are policies and programs that support cultural diversity in the delivery of basic services, such as education, health care, customary law, traditional governance systems, and cultural services. For each of these services the author reviews main challenges and describes best practices. Finally, the book offers a synthesis of what has been learned about taking cultural diversity into account in service delivery.

The focus of this book is on the type of competencies that need to be acquired and the process for acquiring the knowledge, values, and skills germane to those competencies. Contributors were encouraged to draw from actual experiences and to incorporate true examples to substantiate points and illustrate abstract ideas. The book is divided into two major parts. The implications of Canada's multicultural policy for professionals in the social service arena are presented first - how the policy came to be and the resulting emergent call for culturally competent professionals to deliver culturally appropriate social services. The second part addresses the implications of Canada's multicultural policy for social services practice; for management, administration, and organizational change in social service agencies and organizations; for research and practice evaluation; and for professional education and training and continuing education.
