Atlantic Fellows for Social and Economic Equity
@AFSEE_LSE
Atlantic Fellows for Social and Economic Equity is a fellowship programme for activists, researchers, and practitioners who believe inequality can be defeated.
AFSEE Fellows and staff had the opportunity to take part in a participatory embroidery workshop run by Dr Tanya Harmer and Gloria Miqueles during Module 4 🪡 The workshop explored the role art can play in communicating dissent and resistance during democratic crises ✊
