OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
We are thrilled to welcome The Lord Woolley of Woodford to St John’s for this year’s Black History Month Lecture. Lord Woolley’s lecture is entitled, ‘In a climate of fear of “the other”, new leaders must emerge’.
Drawing on his extensive experience tackling racial inequalities in politics and industry, Lord Woolley will reflect on what, if anything, has changed in the five years since the historic race equality protests of 2020, and consider how improving representation in leadership roles might better serve under-represented communities. It will ask what effective leadership means in a political climate in which diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programmes are increasingly under attack.
