@BrigidLaffan @BobbyMcDonagh1 @IrishTimes Yes, we need a rethink. Hasn’t our foreign policy been traditionally too insecure & defenceless 🤷‍♂️ A Kildare man, I’m shocked by how many locals see ‘the Leb’ as a junket. We are dreaming to think most Americans & many Europeans even know where we are on a map. Wake-up call.

@vonderleyen @GlblCtzn @fbirol @Hughcevans President, who’s the African in this picture 🤷‍♂️

This @TheLancet re-assessment 40% upwards of Gaza deaths is utterly shocking, the children, female & non-combatant elderly victims. 2.9% of pop dead! We too quickly forget the genocidal question marks around it all & move on😔 @richardhorton1 @HelenClarkNZ

@INGSciAdvice @PresINGSA @ScienceForumSA Magic vibes for science & society!

Fascinating insights into material & psychological damages caused by floods & fires, man-made & natural, a few new twists by @SciChefQC Didn’t realise how strong Quebec-Canada & SA mitigation ties are! New agreement signed @ScienceForumSA with @NRF_News @SasjaSA @africascidip

Wow … @ScienceForumSA in Pretoria passes 6000 delegates. Over 120 countries. It’s buzzing here @ForoCILAC @AAASmeetings @africascidip @SciChefQC @PresINGSA @WorldSciForum @TWASnews @DrBladeNzimande @HSRCza @ASSAf_Official @NRF_News @thandi25M @daandutoit @rainbowinsid @SasjaSA

Crazy to think how the potato famine in Ireland to literally ‘starve’ your opposition, is replicated in the USA to remove ‘Native’ Americans from the plains.

70% of South Africans proud of their national science system. 58% see benefits outweighing harms. Fear of job losses & lived experiences of benefits for rich, not the poor. Secretive scientists. @HumanomicsMap @INGSciAdvice @PresINGSA @SciChefQC @cptyler @TWASnews @rainbowinsid

Being able to read, speak & communicate in a language are taken for granted, interlinked, important but not always guaranteed in indigenous & developing countries & regions worldwide.

Excellent discussions on quality control in languages, standardisation of traditions, customs, authentication of terminology, indigenous knowledge in journalism. How to avoid media ‘losing the facts & essence in translation’ @africascidip @SciChefQC @INGSciAdvice @WFSJ

Over-subscribed! Lots of @ScienceForumSA 2024 innovations, fostering debate, diverse opinions, career programme, stands, expos, focus on communicating science, sunrise & sunset sessions 🙌 Let the games begin! @dstigovza @daandutoit @africascidip @CSIR @rainbowinsid @HSRCza

Chinese investment in #STEM is guaranteed by law & pegged to economic growth, currently 2.65%, yet private sector is 77%. Despite ‘unjust sanctions’, govt policies are supporting phenomenal growth coupled with strong anti-corruption measures. @ScienceForumSA speaker wooing crowd

Former DG Mijwara on #Covid19 insights, how @dstigovza @CSIR were tested, how the national science system @HSRCza @NRF_News @ASSAf_Official @africascidip was tested, yet overcame. But now this experience & these structures must be enforced. 1% of GDP invested in #STEM a must!

@dstigovza Condemnation of genocide. Strong room support for science for social justice & partnering with UNESCO, also helping Palestinian refugee scientists. Nelson M’s mandate that ‘SA cannot be free until Palestine is free’ remains undone.
