Parliament in Senegal adopted a bill on March 11 to double prison sentences to 10 years and criminalise speaking up for LGBT+ rights. The President still hasn’t signed it. Sign now to stop this anti-LGBT+ law: a.allout.org/s/Pa3jX/

Sweden's voters are against the deportation policies of the current government and September 2026 is around the corner... #Val2026 #svpol #migration #ICE

✨Listening to @rutgerbregman.com and the @bbcnews-world-rss.bsky.social #Reithlectures I agree we need less ultra rich people, and more of working together for a better world! www.bbc.com/audio/play/m...

✨Starting the year nerding out with researcher colleagues in a #migrationstudies workshop in Oslo organised by @jorgencarling.bsky.social. See colleagues @earth-andrew.bsky.social @stacherandy.bsky.social in photos - how are you beginning your professional year?

New year, new me? I have decided to dig where I stand in a DEEP YEAR, completing, simplifying and focusing on already started projects (except at work where applying for new grants is a must). My phone is also moving out of my bedroom and I have thrown away my Fitbit to have less data disturb me!

Jambo Uganda🇺🇬 Spending the week at the African Research Universities Alliance Biannual Conference with @palmowski.bsky.social and other colleagues discussing how Africa’s transformation can be realized through research and AI. #AfricaEuropeCore

Protests filling my timeline 🙏🏽 from #nokings to #freepalestine

So what leader will be the grown up in the room and explain why defense spending isn’t the answer?

Good advise in this case: ”Be a little unapproachable, ready to say “no”, and always ask who else has already been tapped for this favour, and whether the person asking you to step up can’t do the task themself. Take a bit too long responding to texts and calls. Be hopeless at PowerPoint.”

✨Spent the week with inspiring people… www.linkedin.com/posts/kajsah...

Unique situation in Sweden when our primeminister is highly involved in a sector - #adoption - that has been investigated with a list of serious conclusions. On top, as this article asks, how can one be pro-adoption but anti-migration?

Morning seminar at Swedish Collegium for Advanced Studies with Prof Emerita Alisse Waterstone City University New York on Silencing in Academia - great talk and you can follow online! #academiclife www.swedishcollegium.se/archives/upc...

Medvind och sol på den stora demonstrationen för Palestina i Stockholm nu.

Just when you thought it couldn't possibly get any worse.

Useful reminder #freespeech ”Freedom of expression is not merely an abstract principle, or even a constitutional right, but a practical necessity for meaningful advisory work.”

In the first edition of People and Science #folkochforskning- conference, @vetenskapoallm.bsky.social CEO @ulrikabjorksten.bsky.social usefully highlights the science community’s ”principle of generosity”- before arguing we try to understand the other’s starting point and method. Then we critique!

Excited to join the #FolkochForskning conference and learn more about the forefront of evidence based policy making. I’m a researcher to be able to have impact on society.

✨Read Dr Michael Boampong and my opinion piece. Out of a LinkedIn conversation on the recent development aid cuts and their impact on our work with youth populations around the world, we outline the possible effects and try to be constructive, as well as what can be done! 1/3

Proud of my sister @frejahallberg.bsky.social who in Sweden’s leading newspaper lifted 5 ideas on how to strengthen culture in the country of @nobelprize.bsky.social in literature, ABBA, and Bergman. She even coined the term ”RIT-avdrag”! Repost if you love culture! www.dn.se/kultur/freja...

Hey @ec.europa.eu why is Eurostat not on bluesky and still posting on X? How can you promote high quality statistics and data about Europe on a platform that is owned and destroyed by someone who is actively undermining fact-based public discourse as well as the international order?

🇬🇭 I learned something new about Ghana’s independence in this article - it was a midnight speech tradition to mark the break with colonialism.

Interesting thread on the theme ”how to act in new world order”.

Today is a reminder of Zelensky's superhuman stamina and strength. He deflected deeply unfair vile attacks in his 3rd language and kept it together while two bullies threatened his country's existence and repeated the tired but infuriating propaganda tropes of the aggressor.

✨How beautiful! Ordering this book today! #nr

Speaking about being in my forties, just now reading this by my colleague Kristina Öhman about the free publication OSA popular in Sweden the 1990s! Who else wrote to and was published in it? 🙋‍♀️ journal.fi/budkavlen/ar...

🩸War crime of starvation as a method of warfare; 🩸🩸Crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, and other inhumane acts. 🩸🩸🩸Criminal responsibility as civilian superiors for the war crime of intentionally directing an attack against the civilian population Direct quotes. #freepalestine #icc

…but I’m glad I did because at work waited a warm welcome by the Africa innovation event participants from academia, tech sector and funding of African European collabos. Such a joy to meet in person and talk about solutions and ways forward! #africaeuropecore #ai

I braved the snow storm and my 1,5h commmute took 5 hours… #sweden

I hope @mkeyoung.bsky.social is right that BlueSky is becoming the new place for academic convos www.science.org/content/arti... #leavingx #academicchatter

Today, I am looking forward to the event we are organising at Uppsala University, which will showcase our 7 visiting PhD-students in Artificial intelligence from 7 African universities in the #AfricaEuropeCore collaboration - did I say all 7 are women? #Academia #AI

Enjoyed this research on what academic accounts are doing at the moment on social. #Academia #Academicchatter #socialmedia #X #researchcommunications

As I always say, you need balance in your life! Triangulate! #Research
