World Children Day: A generation at risk: The climate crisis through children's eyes
🌏Today we are celebrating World Children’s Day. As COP29 is currently taking place, let’s discuss the impacts of climate change on children. 🚨Globally, over 1 billion children are at extreme high risk from climate-related events, including floodings, heatwaves, water scarcity and air pollution and hundreds of thousands of children die every year due to the impacts of climate change.

#DecolonisingWellbeing 🤝 We can find common ground!
😡 Let’s get this straight, first and foremost: arguments and conflict are going to be part of life, no matter what. It’s part of being a child, parent, sibling, decision-maker, changemaker, visionary, coworker, friend, romantic partner, and human.

#DecolonisingWellbeing ❤️🩹 Leaving generational trauma wounds unhealed perpetuates cycles of oppression!
Does history really ‘repeat itself?’ What if we were able to change its course by breaking the status quo through radical healing? When we honour and let go of our past, and take responsibility for our present, we realise our power to shape a better future. Generational trauma, as the name suggests, develops over time with every generation. If trauma wounds remain unhealed by the previous generation, it gets passed down. It might go as follows… …individuals/communities inheri

#CollectiveWellbeing 🤲Faith is an essential ingredient for resilience and wellbeing.
🧠‘Wellbeing’ is not only about ‘going to therapy’ and participating in Western psychological interventions. Though these interventions work for some, they are not necessarily appropriate for all contexts. For example, while verbally expressing your feelings to a therapist using frameworks like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a respectable care practice, not everyone feels comfortable expressing their emotions in formal therapy settings. 🌏Humans have been using so man

#14October1973 Remembering the 14 October 1973 Uprising: Victory of the People
51 years ago today, the 14 October 1973 Uprising took place, which remains one of the most important events in modern Thai history.

The significance of the event is further amplified by the university-student leaders' success in unifying the entire country for a common goal. Besides the victory, let's also not forget that, on that day, while being ordered to
