      Hi there,
      Is there anyone else having problems with playing the video in Inclusive communication: for module of Digital Communication and Inclusive Design? For me, the video has no sound and it keeps jumping back after 9 seconds or so. I cannot get any further.
      Thanks and see you tonight,
      Ivana

      I just want to say, thanks so much for including a course on Inclusive Communication. As a woman with a non-visible disability AND a person of color navigating in the Western world, this is really important for me not only because it personally affects me in a multitude of ways, but also because I strongly believe that inclusion makes us as a society better. I’ve been an advocate for this for a long time but it’s my first time learning about it in typography. I’m always happy to be a better ally and learn more so thank you.

      An interesting point about using non-binary language, it’s a bit constant reminder for me because in my native language Tagalog/Filipino, our pronouns are already non-binary (sya) and we have a lot of non-gendered words for commonly-gendered English or Romance language words. And also in our pre-colonial days, we also recognized LGBTQ people as a regular part of society. Just a little tidbit I wanted to share.

      Anyway, thanks Marika, Chiara, and Ment-Art team! Looking forward to proceeding with the next lessons!

      Hi, Erika! I just finished The Numbers module of Social Entrepreneurship and I’m not able to download the Income and Expenses Control Sheet template in English. The link on the slide is the same with the Financial Viability Plan Overview template so it just leads to the same google sheets link.

      Surely just a small oversight! I’d like to download it when updated! Thank you.

      Thank you Mek for sharing such interesting info about your language, it tells a lot of your people’s rooted cultural attitude, as languages always do. I’m very much into discovering such things, maybe we could have a talk about it when we meet in Rome for our next Ment’Art in presence appointment…

      Hi Marika and co. I can’t find where to attach our AI assignments on “Online webinars”, could you please post a link?
      Ina did upload our work done with Milenka on two different forum threads (one in the module forum and the other on the general info forum), but we’re not sure they’re visible and anyway you said to upload them in the online section but I can’t see how to do it…
