I am now on Blue Sky, highly recommended, @emerbeamer on bksy.social

Hi to anyone seeing my profile, I stopped using twitter since Elon Musk took over and stopped filtering out hate messages, discrimination and dis-information. and just generally being himself. Find me elsewhere,🙏

What is co-design and why is it helpful for children—and adults? 🌱 Learn from @emerbeamer of our @LSXfellowship how in this process, a child's choices, imaginations, and their own judgments "really count." newamerica.org/education-poli…

A great start of #IDC2024 with @emerbeamer’s keynote speech on the fantastic Design-a-thon works with the vision of empowering children everywhere to become engaged citizens and designers for a better world. Glad to see this keeps going very well 🤩

@DefensieMin @ArmedForcesJO @Defensie This is great and NL needs to stop supporting Israels bombing of Gaza. Then such dropping wouldn't be needed

At the @Catalyst_2030 General Assembly meeting now, definitely the broadest range of countries represented in one zoom meeting, Lebanon, Liberia, Spain, Nepal, Mexico, Kenya, Congo, US, Rwanda, Sudan, Yemen, Germany.. all social entrepreneurs working on the SDGs

@GerBaron so incredibly sad and wrong

Bizar als waar.

This is Elizabeth El-Nakla. She is my mother-in-law. A retired nurse from Dundee, Scotland. She, like the vast majority of people in Gaza, has nothing to do with Hamas. She has been told to leave Gaza but, like the rest of the population, is trapped with nowhere to go.

Wat een beeld. #StopFossieleSubsidies #ExtinctionRebellion #a12blokkade

@EvaNaaijkens @nrc Yep 😞

@JLepeltak ja echt erg jammer dit

@Japked Als je naar de ‘stress release’ yoga gaat en je vindt het best pittig 😁

Jullie zijn natuurlijk heel jong, maar wanneer ben je nou officieel een oude lul? Ik wilde een soort checklist maken. Misschien: als je zegt: ik MOET nog vier jaar werken. Als je iedereen steeds verbetert? Als je de hele dag zegt 'wat is de natuur toch mooi'? Tis voor een column!

@SorchaPollak @theirishfor It's my middle name, but don't know who it refers too?

@theirishfor I met a woman this week who recently called her baby girl Neasa which warmed my heart - it was the name of my wonderful late grandmother. Glad to see there are still baby Neasas out there.

As it's CSO Name Day I'd love to know what your favourite Irish name is.

@GreenSchoolsIre @GabrielleRuane maybe for David T
