Excited to be back in Cambridge (thankfully not to do any assignments this time…) for the Centre for Military Women’s Research Conference at @angliaruskin.bsky.social 📚 The theme is military women’s health & well-being - a topic close to my heart & I’m really looking forward to the presentations 👏
🌊 I’m very excited to have been accepted into the @congeostrategy.bsky.social’s Maritime Leaders Programme, part of their #SeaPowerLaboratory! Yesterday was a great start to the programme feat. a panel on policymaking and a policy workshop on defence spending. Looking forward to the next session 📚
📣 Get those abstracts in! This is going to be a great opportunity to learn about successful publishing strategies in the field of War and Security Studies. We can't wait to hear from you and to see everyone at #BISA2025 in Belfast soon ⏰

My talk 'Making Defence Work for Women' focused on topics like the importance of exploring policy versus practice & empathy as a moral & operational imperative 📣

Great to be back @rusi.bsky.social for the annual RUSI-EDG Debate 🎤 Even better to get a bit of respite and watch this year rather than taking part!! Good luck to the teams 👏

"Gender equity isn't just a matter for a few passionate women to address. It's a matter of knowledge" - Frida Linehagen
I had a fantastic time chairing today's panel b/w Women in #Defence UK & Femme Defence on pursuing #genderequity across defence. Huge thanks to our panellists for their insights 👏

Here’s a starter kit with PhD and ECR voices on all things strategic studies/ security studies, without a specific geographic scope.
I’m still building it, so if you know PhDs/ ECRs actively posting (or are one), tag them or drop me a line.
