The most valuable support I received did not come from manuals or frameworks alone. It came from a network of colleagues and partners who had already been through similar processes. Great to see this kind of support now being intentional, accessible, and collective @MantisMentor

Responsible innovation begins with real human needs and strong public systems. Through this partnership, we aim to translate trusted guidance into practical solutions that uphold rights, support mothers and families, and help young children thrive.

Strategic mentorship for social change isn’t a slogan for me. It’s lived experience. From UN policy work to co-founding @MantisMentor, progress came from people who’d been there before—sharing perspective, tools, and questions. #mentorship #SDGs More: linkedin.com/posts/mantis-m…

Only British citizens or UK residents can sign this petition. I’ll use my right to ask a question: How were these changes to policy and practice on de-sexed language implemented without formal evidence review by the UK What Works Network? @WhatWorksUK This contradicts the UK’s commitment to evidence-informed policymaking. @WhatWorksUK gov.uk/guidance/what-…

Desexed language in women's reproductive health is common in the UK despite no research to identify impact. The government health research funder has rejected applications for such research. Please sign this petition to enable evidence-based decisions in health communications.

A useful reminder to put people, not platforms, at the centre of digital transformation.

UNU INSIGHTS: “a future in which AI serves to unite rather than divide, and to empower rather than marginalize. This is far more than fixing biased algorithms; it’s about reshaping human values and knowledge in a future where AI is a force for good” untoday.org/built-in-bias-…

2025 was about embracing change while staying true to core values. A professional turning point. Leaving familiar structures. Building something new. Grateful for the trust and collaboration with @MantisMentor and @UptakeCenter

Celebrating award-winning research! Congrats to @JuliePSmith1 at @UniCanberra and co-authors Tuan Nguyen, @PhilBakerNZ, and @MathisenRoger on the Best Paper Award at the International Open Innovation Conference 2025. Read the paper: oic.vinuni.edu.vn/proceedings/ #GreenFeedingTool

🎉 Congratulations to the Government of Viet Nam and all partners involved in this milestone for families, public health, social policy, and the nation. @Gendernutrition

Real change happens when experience is shared and action is collective. At @MantisMentor’s @UptakeCenter, we help connect those who know the process of change with those now leading it. That is how knowledge becomes impact. #EvidenceToAction #StrategicMentorship

At Mantis Mentor’s NormativeAI initiative, we integrate AI technology to assist people across policy, practice, systems and services. Our focus is on human-augmenting AI, supporting better use of information and decisions that improve wellbeing. #AIIntegration #HumanAugmentingAI

Uptake keeps growing — new collaborators based in the 🇺🇸 United States, 🇬🇧 United Kingdom, and 🇿🇼 Zimbabwe bring expertise in nutrition, health, social protection, care economy, data systems, and behavior change strategies — strengthening how evidence guides action for impact.

Exciting news from @MantisMentor’s @UptakeCenter.

Mentorship gives collaboration direction. Collaboration gives mentorship reach. Together, they make change and impact possible. The Uptake collaborative embodies this, turning evidence and experience into action through shared purpose, learning, and lasting impact.

@DrKarleenG @benryanwriter Verify with their LinkedIn for time use evidence 🤣

@benryanwriter Yes, I would have thought that would be the pattern.

I wish someone would conduct a study to determine whether people who list in their X bio being a parent first and their high-powered job second are more or less likely to prioritize parenthood over career than those who do not list being a parent first or at all.

“Only one of 19 of the identified health professional associations fully covered the Code in ethics or standards documents for health professionals providing care to mothers and infants in Australia.”

A new office address, a fresh view, and the first chapter of @MantisMentor — home to our social impact initiatives @UptakeCenter for Knowledge Transfer & Innovation and NormativeAl. Grateful for everyone who's been part of the journey so far. instagram.com/p/DQdcbb1D4gD/…
