Who else is going to the #LegalDesignSummit?
Our director is speaking about designing with not for people. Given the failures of international law, the #LegalDesign movement's aim to improve access to law, its relevance, and to humanise law couldn't be more urgent.

Thanks to there brilliance of @HannaGwynn @lmurraysmith for making this such a caring creative project
🗣️ ‘what makes it much more special is that collaborative effort – more special than it just being, ‘here’s the artist, just throw in some ideas, and they’ve done it, bingo!’ I feel confident that everyone got their voices heard. I was actually amazed at how well it turned out!’
The Creative Communities project at @MaudsleyNHS with @BeyondTextOrg worked with a diverse group of young people to create a digital comic exploring their own experiences of, and perspectives on, self-harm, suicidality, and exploitation.

No windows, only walls for women in Afghanistan. But women continue to protest:
"Our future is bright, and we will keep fighting for it."
The Taliban has banned windows women can be seen through. 100+ decrees have silenced women, erased their faces & stripped away their freedoms.
* BRICS refused the taliban’s request to meet & join
* EU and UN meet with the taliban - and accept the talibs ban on women attending the meeting
#MoralAuthority …?
