My book on #multilingual dramaturgies is finally out with @PalgraveTheatre Written in dialogue with artists, it argues for multilingual #theatre's central role in Europe’s futures & illuminates the practical and creative difficulties in making it. link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9…

Poland’s first-ever university course to train teachers of Silesian language and culture has been launched, with all available places filled within three days. It comes months after President Duda vetoed a bill to recognise Silesian as a regional language notesfrompoland.com/2024/11/18/pol…

With a heavy heart I joined this call to @sinnfeinireland to object their continuous attempts to further stigmatise #migrants. The former values of the party would always be close to my heart as they were close to many #Polish people. Not anymore 💔 #GE24

Sinn Féin proposal to introduce registration for EU/EEA migrants makes us feel anxious that the welcoming attitude in Ireland is shifting in the opposite direction. Read our statement. #GE24 @sinnfeinireland

Rustaveli Avenue, Tbilisi now. Protesting the total election fraud this time. Exceeded my expectations for today, to be honest. Until victory! 🇬🇪🇪🇺 📷 Irakli Tabatadze

If you think that East Europeans are over-reacting when saying that our voices have been silenced in Western spaces, ask yourself how much you hear about the Georgian election or the execution of Ukrainian POWs in Western (heck, global!) news? Ignorance erases us from view.

I had never heard the words #migrant & #leadership together so I decided to change that. In 2017 I set up the Migrant Leadership Academy & we're recruiting again. In 7y we identified & nurtured exceptional leaders @Val_BR_IE & @Gonchigkhand1 are both graduates of the Academy

🚨 My new open-access article is out 🚨 Paper ‘Nobody had their back’ on the differentiated deportability of Central and Eastern European EU migrants is now published and free to read for all in the European Journal of Criminology. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/14…

European research infrastructure that takes money from CEE countries, builds evaluation panels to the exclusion of experts from South-East-Central Europe and grants over 90% of the funds to Western research institutions. How to call such system and the ways it shapes knowledge?🧵

In the @ERC_Research #StG panel SH1, there are no representatives from #CEE. Meanwhile, non-EU countries (8), the UK (2), Germany (2), USA (2), and Russia (1) are better represented than the 13 countries that joined the EU after 2004. Is this serious?

An article about current underground theatre scene in Iran. Many of us have been waiting for it. I’m so glad I convinced the author Ali Mansouri to write it and then helped him publish it! Also the result of participation and friendship at ATHE! thetheatretimes.com/report-from-th…

…and failing to mention Lower Silesia among the places affected by the recent floods? What is this, is our belonging confusing again, we’re not Polish enough? (resolving the mystery: yes, Poland was affected!)

BBC not knowing where Romania is.
