The @monashunilib has opened a very special exhibition "Hoping Against Hope" - a collection that spans 500 years of Ukrainian print culture and displays rare books alongside several spectacular animations and photo voice (it's inspiring!). A highlight is hearing Nick Cave, "be brave, little snails, be worthy of this journey". Kudos to the amazing team behind this exhibition of resilience.

Reflect on your time in school - did you ever encounter degrading language, harassment of teachers, or notice sexist ideologies? It's happening more than you think.

“Most people have a deep need to feel a sense of belonging, characterized as a positive but often fluid and ephemeral connection with other people, places, and/or experiences”

“the year 2020 – with massive bushfires destroying ancient lands, the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Black Lives Matter movement in the U.S., amongst other events – brought the importance of belonging to the forefront of public attention”

A feeling of rejection can dramatically undermine our sense of belonging and can, at the same time, create not only immense emotional anguish but also mimic the experience of physical pain (Allen, 2021).
