@NraagAus Chair @ShabnamSafa reminds us that the stories portraying refugees as heroes need to change. We protect refugees because they are humans and their stories are diverse. Only when this diversity is reflected we can really embrace and welcome every refugee #kaldor23

Congratulations to @lillicrovara for a fabulous presentation on the micro-politics of flexibility and work arrangements at #AAG2023. Great use of vignette to highlight that flexibility is a need. So glad to attend this very insightful session organised by @davidbissell @UniMelb

So thrilled to be attending my first international Conference at #AAG2023 and presenting a paper on the lived experience of women seeking asylum in Australia. Shared reflections on using photovoice as a meaningful method that centres women's voices on issues that matter to them.
