Today I closed my Instagram account. Left twitter a couple of weeks ago, and Facebook a few years ago. I’m looking for safe, inclusive spaces to be and let be. 💜

Very pleased to announce I’ve been awarded 5-year European Research Council (ERC) funding for the project ‘Energy Divides in Europe: Closing Gaps in Understanding for Transformative Alleviation of Energy Poverty' (EnCUENTA). I’m absolutely over the moon! #ERCCoG
