Whilst #BlackHistoryMonth is a good thing we need to move towards including it as part of the whole curriculum and taught all the time rather than just in one month, both in schools and higher education - otherwise it will remain tokenistic #equity #SocialJustice #race

I have a MSc and a PhD in Health Psychology and have researched well-being for more than 15 years. Every time I see a tokenistic message telling people to engage in mindfulness as a tool to manage stress produced by preventable inequities I feel an effervescent rage.

From hybrid business models & complex system wicked problems to cross-cultural perspectives & transformative capacities. Enjoying the #ISIRC2020 conference, where #SocialInnovation + #SocialEnterprise meet #SustainabilityTransitions

Important point Professor Bob Doherty made during keynote at @isirc2020 - 'social enterprises see wicked problems as opportunities'. We do see the opportunities at @_wickedlab - when using our software you can choose a 'wicked problem' or a 'wicked opportunity'.

Virtual Conference:
What you see at the screen vs what's actually happened
Dress up at the top, pyjama at the bottom. Privileged 😜😜.

Talking about, my heritage, community & experience use to be a joy. But with so much trauma & heightened racial tensions, each conversation now feels like a battle ground & source of potential conflict. I now realise sometimes resistance & activism is about finding the joy again.

Thank you for sharing this @BhavikAnilPatel a very useful resource! please do get in contact if you would like to start a conversation about how this will work in your institutions! @AdvanceHE #RaceEqualityHE
Only 15 UK HE institutions have a bronze @AdvanceHE_REC
Here is six reasons why engagement makes a major difference.
If your university has not committed to obtain a bronze award then challenge them to engage.
