I'm delighted to share my thoughts on my new book on surveillance technologies in migration management today at the book launch event at Sheffield University.
Thank you Dr Sara Vannini for organising the event.

Great to see our paper on 'an evidence-based approach to prison library provision' published this week in the Journal of Prison Education Research.

Great #intersectionality paper

This study by Caitlin Bentley Chisenga Muyoya Dr Sara Vannini Susan Oman & Andrea Jimenez C. shows how an articulation mindset can contribute to integrating #intersectionality in #DataScience research, addressing structural inequality: buff.ly/3RMTVIQ

The second paper of our Information Technology for Development Special Issue on Feminist and Queer Approaches to #ICT4D is online! “Women’s Solidarity as Feminism in Action: the concept of sisterhood (sororidad) in #LasRespondonas ”, by Illari Diez & Juan Fernando Bossio. Amazing work! 🏳️‍🌈👊 @saraksha Dr. Ayushi Tandon

Here in #Sheffield , every week and every day we demand an end to this insane onslaught! Jewish Voice for Peace Action PSC Sheffield Green Party #StopTheGenocideInGaza #peacenow

“We should be not proud to go this University, but ashamed!”

Anti-Israeli protest at the Wave, The University of Sheffield.

I saw this type of entitled vitriol during #TigrayGenocide too towards anyone expressing any sympathy for those who were under siege. People's vitriol during genocides is out of this world.

Congratulations! A great book!

The #BletchleyDeclaration may feel like an important milestone, but we need more investment in #AIeducation to ensure Ai isn’t only responsible, but is equitable in its effects!

The obscene claim that the 500,000 people marching in London, many of whom were Jewish, were spreading “hate” is extremely dangerous and deceptive.

As pacifists, we will continue to support and join non-violent resistance for a #CeasefireNOW , including actions this Saturday!

So long to the academic freedom of speech!

One week away! 'FunKino-Cinema for Inclusion' double film screening - using participatory storytelling with #migrants in Sicily. on Nov. 6th at Sheffield SU Auditorium.

Amazing! And then, this for the following Monday evening. Monday evenings in Sheffield are getting super interesting! twitter.com/SaRaksha/statu…

We continue to support the worldwide demonstrations calling for a #CeasefireNOW and to #FreePalestine .

There is no military solution to the crisis and we will continue to emphasise voices for peace. Ending these horrific cycles of violence requires ending the occupation.
