Daniel Calvert @danielcalvert.bsky.social · 20/03/2026Here's a timely evidence brief outlining the serious harms proposed in the UK government’s reforms to refugee and asylum support: increased poverty, instability and deepening division. I support the call to replace these proposals with humane, evidence-based policies: www.canva.com/design/DAHEY... 020
Daniel Calvert @danielcalvert.bsky.social · 15/11/2025I flocked with the Migrant Justice bloc at today's climate march. The UK could give sanctuary now to people who have been forced to leave their homes, knowing that climate refugees can contribute to building a sanctuary for everyone who lives here - every plant, human and animal. What's it to be? 160
Daniel Calvert @danielcalvert.bsky.social · 28/10/2025If you're Glasgow based, you might want to join us on Thursday evening to plan and organise how we're going to counter racism in Scotland and build on our collective power. Not to mention, Marzanna always puts on a nice spread of food! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F... 051
Daniel Calvert @danielcalvert.bsky.social · 25/03/2025I really enjoyed presenting at the British Academy conference on #LinguisticInjustice and got to meet brilliant colleagues like @savithry.bsky.social. Savi's ROLE Collective have produced handy resources for researchers to reflect on unhelpful labels like "native speaker" www.rolecollective.org/home 382

Daniel Calvert @danielcalvert.bsky.social · 13/12/2024At the launch of Outside In, the brilliant photography exhibition exploring how migration has brought the world to Scotland.

Daniel Calvert @danielcalvert.bsky.social · 10/12/2024Yesterday was strategy day @seinglasgow, where I'm a trustee. We developed our goals for the coming 3 years, amplifying the voices of community members across southeast Glasgow in support of integration, equality and an anti-racist future. Plus we ate an entire tableful of snacks. Job done 😋 020
