Our CEO @helengou.bsky.social reflects: "For big social challenges we need to see ourselves as part of the story for change... to feel that our actions matter. The #PeerActionCollective is an astonishing example of how that works in practice; connecting research to social action on the ground."
Delighted to be in Birmingham with the #PeerActionCollective for a brilliant event #VoicesOfChange: Youth action against violence.
