Hanging, swaying, pulsing, the most vulnerable and insubstantial creature, it has for its defense the violence and power of the whole ocean, to which it has entrusted its being, its going, and its will.

Immigrants & asylum seekers are not our enemies. They are not responsible for the austerity, privatisation, erosion of civic life, thinning of democracy and concentration of power we suffer. But they're being punished for these things. Punished at the behest of the very people who *are* responsible.

We can continue trying to bridge the gaps between research and policy, I certainly will, but right now, EU migration policy is largely in the hands of right-wing populists.

[1/2] Le dessous des cartes - Émilie Aubry analyse les détroits et leurs enjeux stratégiques. Ces passages étroits structurent les grandes routes maritimes et concentrent une part majeure des échanges mondiaux, ce qui leur confère une importance éco et géopo essentielle. #HGGSP #geography #straits

1/ EEUU anunció el bloqueo para el lunes a las 14:00 UTC. No había Notice to Mariners publicado y aun nada. Es un bloqueo naval sin aviso formal a los navegantes. Los capitanes en la zona sin instrucciones oficiales. Es como cortar una autopista sin poner señales. 🧵

This was a tough one to write, and I took a bit of a personal risk sharing my own career-long process of discovery from tentatively swayed by the potential for deep-sea mining to convinced that we are simply not ready.

NEW op-ed: The “Everywhere Border”: How Technology Shapes Migration and Fuels Resistance While governments expand digital surveillance, migrant women and grassroots organisations are using it to build networks of care, resistance, and survival. migrantwomenpress.com/2026/04/09/t...

"These... border policing practices... had the cumulative effect of creating more dangerous circumstances for migrants attempting the Channel crossing, and shown state policies to prevent small boat crossings as being a clear driver in the increased number of deaths amongst migrants in the Channel"
