We are all complex, unique individuals with many different parts that help make up our identity. Cultural identity is one part of what makes you, you. It's related to your beliefs, values, ethnicity, where you've lived before and where you live now. Your cultural identity can influence your sense of belonging and fitting in. It can influence what you eat, who you spend time with and what you do for fun. It also shapes your values and your views on health and wellbeing.
