A week of #designthinking at @ETH_en #ETHWeek is producing some wonderfully hilarious and creative #prototypes and #circulareconomy solutions being presented to a jury. Well done everyone!
Great fun today at the conference on #sustainability and #teaching in #highereducation in #Switzerland.
Happy to have presented our teaching #casestudy in a workshop!
Kudos to the Conference team for the vegetarian and vegan catering 😋
Some chilled Sunday reading at the playground courtesy of @Rhodri_H_Davies on #philanthropy,#charity, #thefuture and it's role in #society today. Useful prep for the #embax @embaX_swiss classes coming up in summer and autumn!

When giving feedback remember the difference between the thesis and the person. You think you are commenting on the thesis but the person takes it ... personally. And some people may not be in a good place emotionally as they read it. #PhDSupervisors #AcademicChatter

Many people migrate & send home remittances to help fund climate resilience. But we hear less about the emotional labour of separation from family. Based on research in Bolivia, our NEW COMIC explores this issue. Illustrated by @catsims Join our launch! eventbrite.com.au/e/everyday…

"All we are saying, is give weeds a chance!"
"Weeds" get a bad press but they can be nectar and pollen sources for #bees #butterflies and other #pollinators
So put away the #glyphosate & other #herbicides & learn to live with them.
RT if you think we should #GiveWeedsAChance
Excited to hear Banerjee and Duflo speak live! Their books are inspiring and well-researched ways into the lived reality of billionsof fellow humans. Looking forward to some inspiration and motivation to #makeadifference in any way I can.
