Our new paper on mobility experiences of people with disabilities in #Bangladesh is out! Using #ParticipatoryMethods we uncovered various factors influencing their inclusion/exclusion framed within a time #geography context. We invite you to read & share your thoughts! www.bezev.de/en/institute...

For the #AHRC funded Disability Inclusive Development Networks project I've been working with a cohort of early career researchers involved in disability-inclusive arts and humanities research. This report details the journey so far: www.ids.ac.uk/publications... #ECR #SkillsDevelopment

A group of 11 people stood in a garden. They are smiling. There are trees in the background and green plants.

@officialbha.bsky.social with an outstanding game, surely worthy of a headline? Not according to the BBC. Such is the fate of the Prem's smaller clubs. #BHAFC

Repression & political violence have got worse in #Mozambique. This blog written by an @ids.ac.uk colleague explores the gendered dimensions of the protests: www.ids.ac.uk/opinions/und... 1 of the placards in the photo says "Don’t kill my patients, restock the medicine supplies" #Democracy #Protest

Photo of four women kneeling in protest in Mozambique in the street. Two hold placards written in Portuguese that read: “Power belongs to God and he bestows it on who He wishes – the chosen! Venâncio Mondlane is the chosen” and "Don’t kill my patients, restock the medicine supplies". Photo credit: Yassmin Forte
