Gratitude is the task of today and every day. As we gather and honor each other, let’s remember the land we live upon. Giving it and the indigenous tribes beforehand gratitude and acknowledgement. Through a practice with #DesignScienceStudio , I’ve witnessed minds across the world acknowledging the territory of others as we gather online. Today, I want to share those resources for you to do the same. 1. #NativeLandDigital from @nativelandnet gives you the ability to see what land you live upon and resources to research the tribes further. 2. Territory Acknowledgment (example in video) and definition:Territory acknowledgement is a way that people insert an awareness of Indigenous presence and land rights in everyday life. 3. Consider the impact we all have on the land and how we have power to shape the future with our actions, reflections of past colonial practices, and advocacy. Now, enjoy the day with your loved ones (near and far). #NativeLand #TerritoryAcknowledgment #Thanksgiving #Gratitude #NativeTribes #IndigenousLand #Family #NativeLandDigital

Great to be back with the bright minds at Kings College London discussing our natural destiny. As a part of the Social Science and Technology unit for the 3rd year running it was a privilege to present, promote and provoke conversation on our funeral options available today and the effect of our natural destiny on the planet - It would appear the environmental effect of dying is not one naturally questioned, clearly there's a lot more work to be done here - As we question what the funeral really is here in the UK we have to question what are our needs as a society. As modes of communication have changed and continue to evolve we raise the bigger question of does the funeral matter? Following yet another heartfelt celebration of close to 200 guests, affirmation of my belief in the incalculable benefit of the strength and support of the shared experience of death and loss feels quite deep. As the landscape of the funeral is changing perhaps it is time for some serious current research to dig deeper into the what we do, how we do it. The funeral landscape has changed but are we really looking after our future selves? #futurethinking #sustainability #sociocultural #question #rethink #funerals #makinganexit Lucy Clay

Our grandparents and elders are the pillars of our past and the guardians of our future. Their legacy is the very foundation upon which we stand, a testament to their resilience and wisdom. How do we care for our elders? what problem they may face? how can we manage and ease their life? https://lnkd.in/exrCUNHe

Did you know that children who have spent time in foster care are 3.5x more likely to experience PTSD like that of a war veteran? Placement stability is an integeral part of helping mitigate the affects of trauma children in the foster care system experience. Once healthy stability is achieved, children can begin the process of learning how to form healthy trust-based attachements. This is vital to their healing journey. Keeping sibling groups together, whenever possible, is a monumental part of lessening the overal impact that the trauma of removal can cause for a child. Think about it, even if a child is in a desperate situation and removal is a necessary, they are still being ripped away from all that is familiar to them. For children, routine and control are two extremely important components for healthy development. When children are able to enter into the unknown space of the Child Welfare System and navigate it with their sibling, the trauma that comes with removal can have less severe lasting affects. They have eachother and intimate connection and that gives them a sense of control and safety. I am so excited to see that Christian Bale has discovered this reality and has a passion to help make it possible for siblings to remain together during foster care placement.
