“I’ve always wanted to be more involved with GEOAQUAWATCH -they're a global team of people who care deeply about improving research & uptake of satellite monitoring for #waterquality - the same thing we’re trying to do locally with eo4wq." -Dr Marié Smith Dr Marié Smith cc CSIR 🇿🇦

Hey, that's me! Take a listen to hear my thoughts on the history of science and to get a summary about the ideology that drives my work as a science communicator. #DecolonizeScience

📢COASTAL WATER QUALITY📢 With #cholera and #waterquality in City of Tshwane in the news, we urge City of Cape Town and eThekwini Municipality to use eo4wq satellite data to help identify serious/urgent #waterquality issues in coastal lakes - a 🧵 eo4wq.tumblr.com/post/718634460…

Thanks for having us @FSNetAfrica , such an inspiring group of researchers! #africa #scicomm #decolonise

The creativity in this room today was magical 🪄 #scicomm #africa

The iLukuluku science podcast entertains & includes Zulu listeners. It's a proudly SA example of developing a local language #scicomm, say @astrosibs @nomaculture & Anina Mumm of @scibraai & @sciencelinkSA bit.ly/3OnV6uZ

As ons dit vir Afrikaans kon doen, dan kan ons dit ook vir Zoeloe doen : Die iLukuluku potgooi wys ons kán Afrika-tale vir wetenskap-gesprek ontwikkel, skryf Sibusiso Biyela 🇿🇦 🇵🇸🏳️‍⚧️ Nomasiko 🇵🇸노마시코 S/her & Anina Mumm van SciBraai & ScienceLink bit.ly/3qjtWNV

Meet CSIR 🇿🇦 's Lufuno Vhengani, a space scientist of sorts, automating things for SA's official OCIMS coastal #waterquality tracking tool: eo4wq. The tool will help authorities monitor invasive plants, sea temperatures and harmful algal blooms. tumblr.com/eo4wq/73295345…

After 10+ yrs running #scicomm projects & researcher trainings ScienceLink, I want to do more co-creation projects to include people who have traditionally been left out of science discourse, esp. in #Africa. Please share any connections & opportunities, esp. in Gauteng 🙏

Over the last decade I've worked with amazing young, South African writers, artists, scientists & linguists at ScienceLink, telling stories in English, in African languages, and in pictures. In 2024, we want to support inclusive #scicomm projects - pls DM/email if we can help.

What do we mean when we say "#decolonise science"? Sibusiso Biyela 🇿🇦 🇵🇸🏳️‍⚧️ explains it's about including more people in science discourse by e.g. developing local African language #scicomm: sciencelink.notion.site/What-we-mean-w… cc Nomasiko 🇵🇸노마시코 S/her

[LISTEN] I spoke to Lester Kiewit this morning on CapeTalk on 567AM about some awesome research on how artificial light at night negatively affects wild mice near cities. Nature Africa omny.fm/shows/capetalk…

South African paleoscientists say reforms are urgent to retain talented Black graduates, to develop the field at historically disadvantaged institutions, and to ensure that museums can play their critical #scicomm role. My latest for Research Africa researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-africa…

"Next winter, Elandskloof toddlers could be settling into a brand new crèche, roofed and floored in a zero-carbon cement made from invasive plants cleared by their elders." A circular economy project I covered for CSIR 🇿🇦's Science Scope: 75570714.flowpaper.com/ScienceScopeVo… #scicomm

The Humanity museum exhibition is a key SA #scicomm decolonisation effort! Must still go see it in person but thanks on behalf of the ScienceLink team for the opportunity to write & translate for Iziko_Museums! cc @engelbriewe Sibusiso Biyela 🇿🇦 🇵🇸🏳️‍⚧️ Nomasiko 🇵🇸노마시코 S/her Ncilashe 🇵🇸
