A wonderful few days last week at the Gender and Diplomacy Conference in Sweden, where I presented my research on the British Council's gendering of diplomatic accreditation. Missing the fika already! ☕🍰

What an incredible legacy to have coined two words which describe so fully and so neatly such a hugely complex, important, and frequently misunderstood part of international relations.

And only one of them submitted a book or paper at the end of it.
What does a cat called Honey have to do with diplomatic accreditation? Come along this evening and I’ll tell you!
