OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

We are pleased to invite you to a special online dialogue event exploring the phenomenon of “Hikikomori” (prolonged social withdrawal/isolation) from both Japanese and UK perspectives. This event aims to bridge the gap between academic research and lived experience.
The session will feature presentations by researchers from both Japan and the UK, followed by personal stories from an individual with lived experience and a family member from Japan.
