Really important piece from @DrEmilineSmith & @ScienceHeys - in our team we had an early discussion about our boundaries, places we did and did not want to go, things we did and did not want to see in IWT research. This was not perfect at all, but it was vitally important to talk

Amazing tweet from the rest of the @ArtParrotsCrime crew, well done @DrEmilineSmith and @ScienceHeys! SUCH an important discussion on mental health impacts of studying trafficking. We need much more of this and incorporating more ethics of care into research 🧐
