虽然文化能力的概念已成为改善移徙者和少数民族（MME）健康的一项重要贡献，但人们对什么是具有文化能力的健康促进知之甚少。本文通过分析作者最近参与的一个参与式视频项目的经验，探讨了文化能力概念与社区赋权之间的紧张关系，在该项目中，四个种族/语言群体参与了乳房筛查视频的制作。它说明了移民和少数民族社区在视频制作过程的不同阶段的参与，并批判性地反思了如何理解这一经验。它的结论是，具有文化能力的健康促进要求我们超越语言和文化敏感性，批判性地与社区接触，参与健康促进活动。参与式视频不仅有可能在社区宣传健康信息，而且有可能加强能力和文化特性。
While the concept of cultural competence has emerged as a major contribution to improving migrants' and minority ethnic (MME) health, what constitutes culturally competent health promotion is less well understood. This paper explores the tension between the concept of cultural competence and community empowerment through an analysis of the author's recent experience of a participatory video project in which four ethnic/language groups were involved in the production of a breast -screening video. It illustrates the engagement of migrants and minority ethnic communities in different stages of the video production process, and critically reflects on how this experience could be understood. It concludes that culturally competent health promotion requires us to go beyond language and cultural sensitivity to engage critically with communities to participate in health promotion activities. Participatory video has the potential not only to promote health messages in the communities, but also to strengthen capacity and cultural identities.
