@mccartpm @msmaryquirke @conormcguckin @tcdlibrary @SchoolofEdTCD @tcddublin @mshevlin23 @aoifemlynam @RathVivian @dstokes01 So special to be part of the celebration - and get a (oh so brief!) sneak peek at the book. I look forward to the launch and to properly getting my hands on this important publication.

@JamesNorthridge @TCDInclusion @TCDMATURE @TCD_AP @TCDAbility @tcddublin @abilitycoop @AccessTCD Nice! I see lots of really great pointers too in the checklist.

[Dr Derina Johnson @Derina_Johnson]

@JamesNorthridge @TCDInclusion @TCDMATURE @TCD_AP @TCDAbility @tcddublin @abilitycoop @AccessTCD Hi James, we're encouraging academics to assert such a commitment both in handbooks & Blackboard module 'Welcomes'. An example is the guidance for CHARM-EU educators- https://t.co/e0DTC5TNGc. It's quite open. Are you developing one on accessibility to be copy/pasted into modules?

[Noticing Nature: the British microseason project @Naturalcalendar]

If you find January tough and don't have the energy for resolutions, take inspiration from the natural world and stay in resting mode until spring.
It's cold and dark and not the most motivating time of year, so take it gently until the season turns. Be more dormouse.

Foxes - by Japanese artist Yamaguchi Kayo (1899 - 1984)

For anyone feeling out of kilter... this is my favourite painting in the world. It won't fix you, or make your problems go away, but it may just lift your spirits for a moment or two... ☀️

@mccartpm @SchoolofEdTCD @msmaryquirke @conormcguckin @mshevlin23 @IDTCD @KCarrFanning Looking forward to a new year of discussions, including all about inclusion @tcddublin and @TCDInclusion!

Panel Q&A (names in Alt text) with audience. Q: How to address selective solidarity? We need to name things what they are. And use the opportunity to raise awareness of other displacement contexts. “Yes, and…” Furthering a human rights perspective. #TrinityCentreForcedMigration

Dr @HoareRachel outlines the four pillars of the Trinity Centre for Forced Migration Studies - Research, Teaching and Learning, Dissemination and Volunteering, guided by Trinity’s commitment as a University of Sanctuary @tcddublin. #TrinityCentreForcedMigration

[Dr Derina Johnson @Derina_Johnson]

#TrinityCentreForcedMigration forms part of the reimagining of Global Engagement @tcddublin. Vice Provost Prof Emma Stokes launches the Centre, Director Dr Rachel Hoare. “With humility going out into the world and bringing the world to Trinity… with empathy and understanding”

“therapy must be a place where oppression is examined, where the focus isn’t to simply reduce distress, but to see it as a survival response to an oppressive world.”

A wonderful event, thanks to the vision of our #CHARMEU Inclusiveness lead @agnessarolta. In my roles as a rapporteur & workshop co-facilitator, my key #inclusiveuniversity takeaways: Voice, storytelling & co-creation; data & monitoring; collaboration & not reinventing the wheel!

[CHARM-EU @charm_eu]

@ELTE_UNI hosted the first #CHARMEU Inclusion Conference where participants mapped out enablers to create an #InclusiveUniversity. 🎓 Key points identified during panel discussions and workshops will be used to prepare a call to action. 🎯

I’m extremely shocked to read the news of the execution of four democracy activists including Ko #Jimmy & former MP #PhyoZayarThaw who were arbitrarily arrested & sentenced to death by the #Myanmar Junta.
Myanmar Military junta’s cruelty must be immediately punished by the world.
