An absolute privilege to contribute to this book - what we can all learn from #Wales about #local approaches to #child #poverty with Lori Beckett & @BangorUni colleagues
5 Dec 2023
This book provides national governments and school-communities with a model way of working to push back against child poverty, showcasing Walesβs social democracy as different from the UK conservative neoliberal project.
π uwp.co.uk/book/child-povertyβ¦
ALT βThe relentless pursuit of neoliberal policies by the UK government will only be halted through concerted action by social movements to reassert the values that inspired the creation of the welfare state. This book offers inspiring examples of what can be achieved, in Wales and beyond, through a renewed commitment to solidarity.β Philip G. Alston, John Norton Pomeroy Professor of Law, New York University School of Law.

It's Okay to say "I don't know" and "I need help". If you cannot exercise humility, you cannot grow.

Reading lots of research that claims to be co-designed or co-produced when using focus groups, qual surveys and/or other qualitative methods. What is often done is qualitative research but not co-design or co-production. We should avoid conflating qualitative with co- approaches

You can worry about everything that might go wrong, or you can have faith that everything will be okay, because no matter what happens, you can handle it.
A must-read if you assume the worst and have a hard time trusting all is well: buff.ly/2K5Y3gH
