Congrats @UNDPNigeria for #NgarannamTheHomecoming winning two Global Film Festival Awards. This win is a reminder that stories like that of Amina & the people of Ngarannam matter & the importance of having communities as part of solutions makers in fighting #ViolentExtremism.

@sj_rudolphi @ConversationUK Having met three of the WaterAid Community Voices team in their own countries and been introduced to the work they do, I am confident they have a very strong voice. You should read up about the project and watch some of their videos - they are excellent.

@sj_rudolphi @ConversationUK There are many other individuals and organisations I would have loved to have credited with advances in ethical representation - unfortunately I was restricted by word limits.

Charity adverts supporting international causes still focus predominantly on Africa, finds UEA's Dr David Girling 🌍💰 Charities should "consider the negative impact of Afro-centric representations of people in need". 🧵 @developmentuea @socialmedia4D
