When Helping Works [EPUB ebook] 
Alleviating Fear and Pain in Global Missions

Support

Today, people from various parts of the world who are interested in helping fellow human beings impacted by famine, epidemics, wars, and poverty are uniquely positioned. They are interconnected due to globalization’s impact, which also has implications for intercultural work and global missions. The ability to help people is a constructive asset, which calls for the need to build friendships and partnerships across the globe. Helping well depends on a number of factors, yet this book looks into the impact of stereotype threat and its effects on intercultural identities, the perceptions of others, and performance in intercultural missions. Human interactions continue to suffer due to fears, anxious reactions about confirming negative stereotypes about a person’s identity, abilities, and effectiveness in global missions. Stereotype threat happens when caricatures and negative understandings about people’s identities are invoked.
