Last year I decided that I had done my last Great North Run. But my kid was super excited about it and decided he wanted to do it too. So this year we are running the kids race and the adults race for the MS society. Any donations much appreciated.

Here a video of yesterday’s fascinating @VisualPolUQ discussion between Gillian Whitlock & @zhila_gholami on archival research about refugees. Chaired by @cormacticon, topics include Gillian's new @BloomsburyAcad book and Zhila’s Fryer Collection project.

Shameless shout out for sponsorship as I complete the Great North Run once again. Or at least I try to. Slowly.

Thanks @Researchirel for the New Foundations grant. @SalimSaay @UL and me @DCU_Research are collaborating on the DiSSENT project and held an expert panel @mict_intl in Berlin in March to discuss digital security for journalists working in exile. Watch this space for more soon.
Research Ireland has announced funding for 59 projects under its New Foundations programme.
These awards will support researchers in developing collaborative projects with community organisations and government departments.

It is with great sadness that we received the news of the passing of Dr. Paul Lowe - a great soul, an amazing friend, and an incredible artist and photographer. Paul's work is an everlasting inspiration to us all and it was an honor and privilege to work alongside him for close to two decades, and have him as one of the founding members of our Advisory Board. His contribution to preserving the memory of the Siege of Sarajevo and the war in Bosnia is immeasurable and will be missed immensely.
Dear Paul: Thank you for the support, knowledge, and friendship. Our center and our country will never forget you. You will forever stay in our work, art and thoughts. May you rest in peace and power.
Our team sends its deepest condolences to the Lowe and Abadžić families.
