Britain's broken welfare & public service system leaves communities on the brink; it costs a fortune & destroys lives. But there is another way. Have a look at this from @ElephantsTrail changing lives in Greater Manchester by working differently 🫶🏻 theguardian.com/uk-news/vide…
We’re so proud to say that Luisa Omielan’s masterpiece ‘God Is A Woman’ is out now!!

Incredible video. Afghan dad jokingly says school is only for boys. Watch his remarkable daughter - who can’t be more than 5 or 6 years old - respond with these arguments.
Afghan girls have been denied access to schools and universities. This little girl's courage represents the collective voice of countless Afghan girls who yearn for equal educational opportunities.
As an advocate for girls' education the father's teasing is simply to highlight an important message: that the Taliban - another backward regime - are harming the people of his country.
It’s time the world is done with them.
Ditto the “Islamic” Republic in Iran #regime

Let’s be clear: if the Home Secretary cannot say that her Bill respects the fundamental rights of the most vulnerable in society, it. must. be. thrown. out. #r4today
Here are some ways you good folks can help:
@ZoeJardiniere hello! With the Tory policy announcement, do you have any suggestions on what the public can do to help?
Would love some guidance to direct my energy!
Happy new year! Sometimes it feels like only bad things are happening in the world. 2022 was a tough year for #humanrights. Despite this, human rights defenders continue the fight and thanks to them, we saw glimmers of light. Here are some of them! 🎉 crd.org/2022/12/31/good-thin…
Remember why we tell the stories we do...Imagine a world where gender stereotypes have no power? Imagine a world where kids are given the chance to truly understand themselves? Imagine a world where 'Man Up!' means nothing but 'Be Human, Be Yourself' does? #heforshe#mentalhealth
Super important thread. Thank you @ginamartinuk

When faced with misogyny in the headlines teachers and parents always ask:
"How do I talk to the boys in my life about sexual violence?"
You don't. You don't start there. If you want to have an actual conversation that works, it has to begin somewhere else. 🧵

Lovely to see @the_kidsnetwork and @sarahmayw on @CheerfulPodcast.
This message feels doubly important in times like these:
‘Every time I meet a child I feel uplifted about the future; how much passion they have for making the world a better place.’
I love this on the power of @the_kidsnetwork mentoring. There’s clearly an amazing bond between LJ and Rhys and a great relationship with Teesha too.
Huge respect to @sarahmayw for creating such a beautiful and impactful idea.
