Something else I didn’t foresee in my fieldwork risk assessment; being trapped in my room for the best part of a day because of swarming bees!! 🐝 🐝🐝😂
A little ad in an 1893 diary to attract new farming enterprises to the colonies of Victoria and South Australia: “The Fruit Garden of the Universe”
This fish fin was tucked into a sailors diary, of an 1891 trading voyage to the Solomon Islands. I’ve found lots of (uncatalogued) artefacts in various archives, but I think this is my favourite @statelibrarynsw @sheffieldgeog
Lw @sheffieldgeog @LeverhulmeTrust held a workshop @RGS_IBG on climate #adaptation with @ilo @GCAdaptation @CDWSheffield @UCLIRDR @uclspp @cambridgelaw to ask how to define the spectrum of adaptation labour, much of which falls outside the definition of #decentwork?
Gave a lift to the lovely Astrid Toby and Charlotte today who happened to be students @sheffielduni @SheffieldSU hitchhiking to Cardiff to raise money for charity!
Going through some field photos I found this dugout canoe (dug-out of a tree trunk) being crafted in Manatuto district #TimorLeste. Fishing is a relatively new livelihood learned after highlanders were displaced to the coast during the Indonesian occupation (1975-99)
