Elderly

Laboratories Of Social Innovation

May 7, 2026 Marc Sweeney, Grassroots Economic Organizing. , , ,
When you're deep in the day-to-day work of giving care and support, it's not always easy to step back and reflect on the wider significance of what you're doing. That's one reason why we welcome academics who are interested in our approach, and in how it is transformed into actual practice by the incredible people who make up our Equal Care Teams. Their studies are valuable for what they contribute towards possible futures for social care, but they are also important for us in how they validate, reinforce and sometimes reframe what we are doing, inspiring us a bit when the skies are (metaphorically, but also at the moment literally!) dark and stormy.

Ukraine Mobilizes Women, Elderly Amid Failed Counteroffensive

October 15, 2023 Dmitri Kovalevich, Orinoco Tribune. , , , , ,
The month of October 2023 marks four months since the beginning of a Ukrainian counteroffensive. The counteroffensive was widely publicized in the West at its beginning. U.S. and British generals pinned high hopes on it, stepping up their weapons supply and training of the Ukraine Armed Forces. But after four months, the counteroffensive has yielded no results. Ukrainian forces are stuck before the Russian defense lines with no way to break through. Huge losses during Ukraine’s failed counteroffensive are behind the first attempts to formally mobilize women for military service. Of note is that Ukrainian authorities are looking favorably at “Israel’s” experience with female military personnel.
