I am privileged to be part of the research team using photovoice methods to hear the stories of men who have experienced a concussion. We are now starting recruitment and would love to hear from anyone who might be interested in participating. Ngā mihi nui.

Adding this to my reading for sure - looks spot on. Relevant to our current writing Natasha Layton Dr Rachelle Martin

💯… but I am not holding my breath that the reframing will get any action from our current NZ govt. They are busy beating the individual responsibility drum w/o any accountability 4 the fact that structural inequities are only likely to deepen under their watch 🤷🏻‍♀️😢
