After Disasters Network

Congratulations Ellen!

Please stop the #Miracle narrative. Aircraft design and peoples actions led to this outcome. We blame people when things go wrong and then when things go well we attriubute it to God? 🤷‍♀️ #HanedaAirport theguardian.com/world/2024/jan…

Question for UK #EMGTwitter Why are the “Turn around, don’t drown” and “An eggcup of water can ruin your engine” campaigns failing so badly in gaining traction in the UK? Yes, it’s a SocSci problem, so how do we engage the audience better? #UKFloods

@Davrob5 @robertwaldinger @Surgeon_General @kirstyjmcneill @GemmaMortensen @kirstyjmcneill Hope is a discipline. Love is a decision. The thing to do tomorrow is to decide to be loving.

@Davrob5 @robertwaldinger @Surgeon_General @kirstyjmcneill "We are subjecting those we rely on to deliver our public services to moral injury" @kirstyjmcneill

@Davrob5 @robertwaldinger @Surgeon_General A study of 2835 women with cancer found that those with a network of good relationships were four times more likely to survive than those without. @Davrob5

@Davrob5 @robertwaldinger The evidence is overwhelming and so are its implications: 6% of the adult population in England are chronically lonely.  Building stronger social connections could on @Surgeon_General's most cautious estimates yield a 30% reduction in the risk of premature death. @Davrob5

I am 💯% convinced that a moritorium must be declared on all deficit focused & damage-centered research. As this sort of pathologising research is being used as a gateway to community harming policies. Researchers that are profiling only deficits should be stopped at the gate.

Our thoughts and prayers are with those affected by the horrific fire in Johannesburg last night.💚

Grateful to have attended a #SpacesForListening today with @brigidrussell51, @charlie_psych and others. I feel like I needed some truthful conversation, to sit and genuinely listen, and be very honestly heard. Thank you. A little faith in humanity has been restored!

The universe is a constellation of networks &, like everything, networks work better when relationships work well. Join us and @HabitusUK online on 3/10 to explore ways of building more powerful networks RSVP👉docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI… Inspo👉youtube.com/watch?v=FHk85A…
