Across movements there is deep exhaustion from seeing the world aflame. Hard‑won gains for #peace, #rights & #justice are being rolled back. In this edition of On The Move, we explore a simple but powerful insight: care is not a distraction from political struggle — it is part of what makes it sustainable. ow.ly/ees850YwJCP

New Issue! ON THE MOVE: UNDERSTANDING THE AUTHORITARIAN PLAYBOOK. There are more autocracies today than democracies, over 70% of people worldwide live under some form of #authoritarian rule. By manufacturing moral panic, scapegoating minorities, weaponing crisis and questioning truth, authoritarian leaders mobilize support and justify #repression. The authoritarian playbook is being copied the world over and it’s time for a counterstrategy. Read More: ow.ly/QoZu50YkSyk

Valentines day edition, red flags 🚩 things we certainly don’t romanticize… Control pretending to be care, jelously justified as love, silence being considered "peace", exploitation being presented as opportunity, and tokenism substituting real inclusion. Happy #ValentinesDay from #GlobalPlatforms, may we all love with respect, care and safety. 💜✊
