[Dr. Ijeoma Opara @IjeomaOparaPHD]

I’m noticing funders are seeking more anti-racism work from scholars—I really hope this is an ongoing thing until we find real solutions.
This should not be a 2020/2021 thing.

Also, Black scholars are experts in other areas, not just anti-racism work

@maxvcg Only if we also@start Incorporating emojis! 🤯🙄🙌🏼

#AcademicTwitter anyone else struggling with figuring out how to #decolonize a place referred to as “the academy”?? No? Just me? Oof.

@armp71 I think the parties are saving the big headlines for closer to the election when people are back from summer vacation 🤷‍♀️

[PhD Voice - Independently Run @PhDVoice]

To help new PhD students starting this year, what are some of things you’d suggest they do at the start of their PhD?🤔

[Shannon Brown @Shannon_BrownSW]

I’ve been reading a lot of these and they are honestly so helpful. A good reminder that boundaries is self care.

If you were able to redo graduate school, what would be one thing that you'd do differently?

[Factor-Inwentash Faculty of Social Work @UofT_FIFSW]

Congratulations to #FIFSW Prof. @carmenlogie on receiving a Grand Challenge Canada grant for her work to create a virtual reality intervention to improve mental health literacy among refugee youth. And thank you to @gchallenges & @NIHRglobal for supporting global #mentalhealth.

[Group Development Pakistan @gdpakistan]

Group Development Pakistan is conducting a two days training on child rights, child protection, and gender-based violence. This training is specially designed for the teachers to broaden their horizon about a child's needs and how we can protect them.

It's happening. @fordnation @celliottability, when is this coming to Ontario?

[Shannon Brown @Shannon_BrownSW]

Every morning we drive to camp. Every morning my kids ask that I turn off the radio. Their fears about #Covid_19 and #unvaccinated peers, teachers and support staff is too much to bare. Time to make #MandatoryVaccinations a thing,

[Shannon Brown @Shannon_BrownSW]

Mid-life career pivot, commence! Excited to get my research on @UofT_FIFSW … T minus 4 weeks!

[Michael Warner @drmwarner]

Less safe schools
Economy in neutral
non-COVID care cancelled
Emotionally destroyed HCWs

This is what will happen if @ongov continues to watch Wave 4 from the bench.

Vaccine certificates and mandatory public sector/public facing vaccination...today.

It's time to lead.

[Meanwhile in Canada @MeanwhileinCana]

Within the last 48 hours University of Toronto, Western University, University of Ottawa, Carlton U, and University of Guelph have all declared vaccine mandates.
It's perfectly legal and you'll see more of it in the next 48 hours.

[Irfan Dhalla @IrfanDhalla]

513 cases today in Ontario. R(t) ~1.5. Millions of unvaccinated children heading back to schools in less than a month. 20 million doses across Canada in freezers, can't be easily donated to lower-income countries.

Let parents decide whether they want to vaccinate children?
