Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
This workshop will examine Covid-19 data and its debates as they relate to Africa, as well as the ways in which this region has been represented and modelled during the pandemic, integrating experiences of the pandemic with its portrayal in both medical and popular media. Bringing together researchers from the humanities and social sciences as well as medicine, the workshop will analyse medical data, medical experiences, and medical representations, interrogating what ‘Africa’ itself signifies within the field of global health.
