Some news: very happy to be heading to Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology this month to be a research assistant on the #IndigenousFutures exhibition!
I’ve been so lucky to work w/brilliant ppl in Team Med Science Museum but looking forward to a new gig.
So, who do I know in Cambridge?! 🏛️
As colleagues know I've long been obsessed with what people mark on museum collections & finally got round to writing a whole chapter on its significance for communities with Cressida Fforde & Lyndon Ormond-Parker. I'll be talking about it later this month 👇🤓 #tetrarchs
Today, I'm backed by my senator, David Pocock, in launching my campaign to establish a duty of care owed by politicians to young people, ensuring that our health and wellbeing is considered when making decisions that could affect the climate system.
Delighted to have accomplished visitors over for lunch at CAIK while they are in Sydney: Yvette Holt, chair of FNAWN and UTS Arts & Social Sciences alumni Annabelle Sheehan, Professor of Practice at Syracuse University

The #TorresStrait8 have won their case against the Australian government, with the UN finding the state violated their right to enjoy their culture and lives, by failing to act on the climate crisis.
The landmark decision found they should be compensated. #OurIslandsOurHome
WE WON!!! The #TorresStrait8 have made legal history today - Australia has violated their human rights and must do more to protect them from climate change, including paying compensation. @ourislandsourhome
