“Don’t merge the ARC into the new tertiary commission”
Prof. Margaret Sheil, who led the recent #ARCreview, has that simple message about the Universities Accord recommendations.
Her article’s in The Australian, which I won’t link to, but here’s some excerpts:
The ARC opened the #DECRA #DE25 applications today. As with Laureates & Future Fellowships, the app form has been streamlined, more-so in some places.
Brief summary of some changes in Twitter 🧵 below. I'll summarise myself tomorrow (I personally think the changes are good!).

Check out my latest piece in #Truthout on why #climate governance needs to be #decolonized. And how.
#ClimateCrisis #ClimateChange #ClimateJustice #ClimateColoniality #Decolonization #GobalSouth #BIPOC #Resistance #SocialMovements #COP28 #COP #fossilfuel #Capitalism #Colonialism #extraction
In this piece I demonstrate why decolonizing #climatechange governance requires a radical shift in our approach to the #climatecrisis. It requires us to confront legacies of #colonialism & #capitalism that enduringly shape our world.
Challenging the power dynamics that perpetuate #ClimateColoniality requires centering the voices, experiences & knowledge systems of diverse #Black, #Indigenous & people of color for #ClimateJustice, while also learning from communities in the #GlobalSouth.
Really good article that needs to be read. The takeaway point are spot on:
"Decolonizing climate governance requires a radical shift in our approach to the climate emergency. It requires us to confront the colonial and capitalist legacies that enduringly shape our world. It necessitates challenging the power dynamics that perpetuate climate coloniality. It demands centering the voices, experiences and knowledge systems of diverse Black, Indigenous and people of color in climate solutions, while also learning from communities in the Global South."
