@MEecoprof I don’t! I’ve found it extremely hard to find info about the event online! If anyone else reading this has suggestions I appreciate them as well!!
Last weekend (19/11/2022) I joined the Marine Biology and Zoology Society here @ Queen’s University Belfast in Northern Ireland! The students have been working with the National Trust (one of the biggest eNGOs in the UK) to develop a range of #NaturePositive projects at the Trusts Mount Stewart site (on the shores of Strangford Lough). Some words from the Society President Rebekah Bajkó and Karina Robinson - the Volunteering and Community Manager for East County Down! https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMFxhNFaU/

Off to join my colleagues on the picket line this morning! I’m striking in solidarity with those in less secure positions, yr on yr pay increases that amount to pay cuts, gender pay disparity, and an inability to resolve a pensions dispute! https://www.belfastlive.co.uk/news/belfast-news/queens-university-staff-join-uk-25590614

'If university vice-chancellors, like our own Professor Ian Greer, can't respond effectively and ethically to this matter, why are they paid such astronomical salaries?'
